writes: How do you know when to let go and move on from a relationship or when to stay with it and move forward? Lots of positives in the relationship, but there are trust issues and I'm learning that we don't communicate well- I don't think he "fights fair", doesn't seem to understand or hear me.So I'm struggling now with what to do. Suck it up, accept the flaws and move forward, or end it?

That is a tough one as I am in the same situation. It is a very personal decision that basically comes down to this; which one outweighs the other? Sometimes you literally have to make a Good/Bad list to see the proof. Be brutally honest. If you have more in the bad column, then you probably know the answer. On the other hand, I am starting to realize all men have their flaws. Those who treat us well usually bore us to tears and sometimes the sexual chemistry is just not there. Don't ask me why. The guys who tend to leave us feeling unappreciated or invisible are the ones we keep trying to convert. Maybe we like a challenge? Who knows but we do put up with alot and it all comes down to how strong you are, and whether or not you can love yourself enough to overlook the fact that he doesn't provide all your emotonal needs. I wish you the best.

I thought the main thing in any relationship is was trust and communication , and you dont have both. those positives has to be HUGE for you to stay.

If you are miserable in the relationship and find you are having few moments of happiness and joy, it is time to move on. If he doesn't seem to understand you or fight fair, he probably won't ever change.
If he was communicating with you, I would say that you might be able to overlook the flaws, but when someone will not communicate with you, it is going to be very hard to solve any issue you might have. Or even make your relationship stronger.
