All relationships are full of ups and downs, good days and bad days, and if you’re together for a really long time, sometimes those bad days turn into bad months or even years – but as long as there’s more good than bad when you weigh it all up in the end, it’s worth it.

These 16 posts will make you feel better about the not-so-good days in your own relationship, because not only is it totally normal, but we can all laugh about it together.

Even though you know she’s never going to be able to stay awake.
