As a single, one of the most heart-wrenching thing any lover can do to you is to compare you with his/her ex. This happens but some singles do not know what to do.
Some of the challenges people face in their relationship stems from the fact that some is yet to mentally move on from his/her ex and is yet to accept the new person. Comparison will set in and disatisfaction will result.
Anywhere there is bitter comparison, disatisfaction will set in. Comparison shows you are not satisfied with what you have currently.
The comparison game shows you are not accepted fully and it indicates that the heart of your partner is still with the other person and not you.
Some singles are in a relationship where they are managed and not accepted because there is an ex that comes into the picture repeatedly. They still chat and exchange pleasantries from time to time.
If that ex was so good and marriageable, why move on to another person?
Even in marriage, it is unwise to compare your spouse with another person. It breeds hatred and a sense of not being appreciated fully.
