Tell Us Your "I Did Not Settle!" Relationship Story

Never settle.

Sometimes you get wrapped up in the wrong relationship and it's easy to ignore all the reasons you should leave.

But, when you do leave, you find yourself happier than you ever were with your ex.

my dad used to get so mad every time my mom would come home w a new coffee mug (she likes to collect them) and her new bf literally built her a wall to display her collection. this is why we don’t settle for loser boys, ladies!!!!!

Maybe your new partner put your kids at the top of their priority list.

Everyone knows me and my kids are a package deal! My bf rocks! Got my girls #Valentinesgifts😿😻 #finallyfoundtheone

Or maybe your new partner helped you get out of a tough situation.

I fucked my credit up trying to help my ex/son's father. Now I have a MAN who just created a whole ass plan on how WE are going to fix MY credit. So that WE can buy a house. Ummmm leveled up much! Never settle ladies!! The right one for you is out there!

Once you got out of the relationship, you may have wondered why you didn't get out sooner.
