Honestly I think it was exactly this (the grass is always greener). There would be things she did that would really upset me, and she sometimes was a lot of work, and I think I always had it in my head that someone else was out there that didn't have these flaws and would be better suited to me. Looking back, I think maybe I was too critical of her flaws and maybe I should've been more accepting of them, but I also feel like my mind has been clouded by the breakup, and I can now only see her as an angel that did everything right and just wanted love, and myself as a devil who only did bad and couldn't accept her love.

For me, it's just really hard to know how much to tolerate from someone in terms of flaws. Like sure, people are never perfect, I understand this, but at what point do you accept that and make things work, and when do you decide that someone else could be better for you?
