If you've seen the "We listen and we don't judge" trend on Tik Tok, then you know that love isn't always a bed of roses. This trend, where couples confide in each other's secrets without judgment, has created situations ranging from innocent laughter to scenes that make you wonder: "Why are these people still together?"
From a woman serving her partner a glass of questionable juice (to say the least) after an argument, to a man admitting to hiding in the bathroom to leave all the chaos of the house to his wife, the videos have garnered millions of clicks and millions of comments like: "They need a divorce, not a Tik Tok."

Some stories are harmless, like the case of someone "betraying" their vegan diet, but others are indicators of toxic relationships. User comments have made it clear that some of these people, instead of helping or supporting their partner, choose to behave badly and even openly with anger.
What does this trend teach us?
That many people would rather stay in an unfulfilling relationship than be alone. But why is this so? Why are there still those who believe that it is better to suffer with someone than to find peace with yourself?
Psychologists show that fear of loneliness and the social stigma of being single often push someone to choose to stay in a harmful relationship. So perhaps it's time for "We listen and we don't judge" to change to "We listen and we leave" - ??a lesson for all those who think that love only makes sense when it tolerates the intolerable.
