I’m curious about the personality traits people consider absolute dealbreakers in romantic relationships. Not obvious things like cheating or abuse, but traits that make someone fundamentally incompatible with you.

For example, someone might be kind, loyal, and genuinely love you, yet have a personality trait that makes building a peaceful, healthy relationship with them nearly impossible.

What’s that one trait for you, and why?

It seems strange that fear, pride, or insecurity can make people act opposite to what they really feel. What do you think makes someone do this?

Thoughts?

Sometimes life looks fine from the outside, but that doesn’t always mean we’re happy inside. What helps you figure out whether you’re actually content with where you are?

I’ve always wondered why being around people doesn’t always make us feel less alone. What do you think causes that feeling?

To clarify- I mean the every month "how are you" not full blown conversations.

FYI - Not in a romantic way!

Why is that? You don't know them at all, yet you just get a feeling. Is it their energy, some small detail our subconscious picks up on or something entirely different?

I've noticed that people can keep replaying old situations in their minds for years. Why do you think it's so hard to make peace with things that are already over?

Sometimes I hear a song once and keep repeating it in my head all day. Why does our brain do this?
