A surprising amount of relationship satisfaction comes from comparison.

I’ve seen people with objectively good partners still complain constantly, while someone else is completely happy with less.

Makes me think a lot of people don’t judge their relationship directly. They judge it relative to what their friends, exes and peers have.

People feel lucky when they think they won.
