What would you do if you were in a relationship with someone you love but things aren't ok?

I suppose it depends upon the nature of your lover and upon the degree of "un-okay-ness"; but if possible, I would cuddle up to them and then gently say "I know something is wrong between us - would you be willing to talk about it so we can try to resolve it?"

To me (being me), honesty and straightforwardness is the way to approach it. But you know... human relationships are very tricky; often compromises are required to keep things together, and you have to have a clear idea just what you are willing to compromise over and what you're not - and whatever you decide, stick to your principles, even if it means that the relationship has to end (because mostly they do, anyway, eventually).

I am, and I fret mostly. I try to think of how things can be fixed. I have finally talked him into counseling!! But, I can't just sit back and watch everything go down the drain. Some people will say let go. Some will say hang on. I say be true to who you are. If that means go or stay, only you know the answer to that.

Depends on the nature. Is it "real love" or just two 17 year olds going through standard age related drama? If it just a relationship where "I love you" is said for the hell of it, I hate to break it to you, but there s no good way except figuring out what you need and want from the situation. If it is something real and worth fighting for, then express yourself the best you can and make sure there are little to no loose ends. Give the other person the respect they most likely deserve. You can not go wrong if you do that. Always make sure someone knows they are loved! Whatever is not ok, air it out, or walk away, your choice.

It completely depends on why it's not ok. I would say try to work it out, make compromises, but don''t compromise yourself in the process. If this can be done without harm, get out. Remember the good things and try to learn about yourself from the bad. Don't get hung up on what he/she did wrong because you can't fix that, and it certainly isn't a good measure of how other people will be and are. Don't let some jerk off ruin your trust or faith in others and yourself.

I'd try to talk things over with them and find out what the problem was. The I'd try to figure out a way to fix it.

it depends on what wasn't ok. if you mean some type of abuse, then that would be a deal breaker even if i loved the person. i may love him but i love myself even more.

i was and things constantly got worse and worse until there was no way of fixing it.
if the thing thats wrong is small deal with it now because soon it will be too big to resolve.
then everyone gets hurt

I go on hurting myself and my love of that person. I still love my first gf she was indeed excentric and what could be describes as a real *****

If you don't want to remain in that kind of relationship then you need to shake things up. Do something that forces a change in both of you.
