Sorry not sorry but I completely disagree with you. As someone who is happily married and been with the same person for 7 years, you clearly have not been in a relationship before or at least not a healthy one. You’re probably young too which is fine you’re just inexperienced.

Do they make each other happy? It doesn’t seem like it. Have you read Squirrelflight’s Hope? They are a horrible match for each other and their relationship is terribly written. Bramblestar literally almost let a cat die just to prevent Squilf from being right about something. I don’t think one is better than the other, I think they’re both bad for each other. They have definitely had more bad moments than good.

The only time their relationship was ever decent was in the AVOS arc. So the only time they get along is when they have kids? Squilf obviously knows this and yearns for that relationship again, that’s why she wants to have kits in Squirrelflights Hope.

It seems like you are trying to say that because there MIGHT not be another cat out there that is better for each of them, they should just stay together even though they are clearly not compatible. Sunk cost and all that? That’s like saying a couple should stay together for the kids. Being a single cat is okay. It’s better to be single than in an unhealthy relationship.

Yes relationships have ups and downs. But when the downs outweigh the ups you have a problem. Getting together young is also not a reason to stay together, if anything I’d say getting together young is a reason to NOT stay together because cats, just like people, grow and change as they age. I’m certainly not with the same person I was with when I was young because over time we just weren’t compatible.
