I let go her way all the time and yet she is unhappy and blames me. Some adult DW are just childish and are not able to take responsibilities for their own decisions and actions and have a knack for blaming DH. That has been my married life.

I let go the fact she has a full bu$h. She let it grow over the years and that’s that… 🤷‍♂️

A LOT!

The only reason for letting it go is that I cannot go inside his brain to make it work better. I've tried that, and it didn't work. The alternatives are divorce or letting go. So far, letting go is better. The calculus may change later on.

My husband says incorrect information all the time. I'm just too darn tired to correct him or explain to him he's wrong. He acts like he knows it all but really doesn't. It's frustrating when he's so convinced he's right all the time.

I let go when it comes to politics. He's more conservative than I am and I try not to argue, even when the holes in his arguments might as well be craters on the moon.

You need to tolerate and then just accept that your partner won’t do things the same way as you do. Day to day most things aren’t very important so just learn to live with the differences.

We don't critique what the other gives the kids for their lunches. We only buy stuff we're okay with the kids eating, so it isn't a big deal if he was going to give them dried apricots Tuesday but I gave them Monday.


That's true if it gets done that all that matters.

Here's an example: I don't critique her spending. Whenever I get the urge to say something, I remind myself that no matter how much she spends, it's cheaper than a divorce.

Thinking about relationships and "keeping the peace" I was wondering how much do you "let go" in your relationship? And if you have any examples to share.
