In a relationship, you can find a million things that you love about one another and one thing you absolutely can't stand. For some, it's easy to find things you love but then hate later on. Having a love/hate relationship with your significant other is normal.
1. They're Clingy.
It's easy to say that this is the most annoying quality about people. It's that feeling where they just will not leave you alone, especially when you need it the most.
Yet this quality is still lovable when you think about what it means. If they are clingy, it means they care and just want to be a part of everything you do.
2. They're Protective.
Sometimes it seems like they are harsh when discussing people you don't approve of or things you are doing.
They are just protecting you like a father would. They are just looking out for you and your best interest.
3. They Constantly Have Something To Say About Your Driving.
I'll admit it, this one is totally me. I know in the back of my head that I'm being such a mom and extremely annoying.
Honestly, I'm just worried about our safety and that's all that matters.
4. They Don't Talk To You.
For instance, it's after a fight or disagreement that they didn't approve of and now your significant other won't talk to you. This seems horrible, because you are supposed to be a team, not playing on opposing ones. Openness is key.
I am a culprit of this one. The reason I do it is because when I'm upset, I'm more likely to say something I don't mean. So instead of saying everything that is on my mind at that exact time, I like to take a step back and filter through what should be said and what shouldn't.
5. You're Family Loves Them More Than You.
Sure, this can be SUPER annoying. Like, "hey, I was here first".
Just know, it may seem like they love them more, but you are not replaceable. They are showing your significant other that they care about them too and that they are always welcome.
It's rough to think about how the bad side of these can destroy relationships, but you should always look at everything that bothers you from a different standpoint before making assumptions. All of these love/hate reasons are typically loving in some way.
