10 Things To Never Tolerate In A Relationship

By Debdatta Mazumder

You all know that love is blind. But, love must not be so blind that you can't see the faults in your partner.

It is true that when two people with different mentality stay together, conflict is inevitable. But, if you can't overcome those conflicts with calmness, then there is no meaning being in such a relationship.

Relationships must be open, where both the partners can love each other intently and also point out the faults of each other.
