“You can't truly love someone until you've seen them at their absolute worst and accepted it”
Agree
- Surface connection isn't real intimacy
- Crisis reveals true compatibility
- Easy times don't test commitment
- Accepting darkness proves genuine love
Disagree
- Love exists before crisis hits
- This romanticizes trauma and dysfunction
- Joy and peace matter too
- Some worst behavior shouldn't be accepted
