How do you know when it's just a rough patch vs time to end a romantic relationship? I know it's quite personal and varies by relationship, so I'm more interested in folks' experiences than in a general rule or standard. (Although if you do have a rule of thumb to share, would love to hear it too.)

Note: I'm not speaking of abusive situations, but of relationships with ordinary troubles.

If there are irreconcilable differences that were established by healthy boundaries. Every couple has disagreements. Overstepping boundaries without resolving the issue will eventually lead to pretty negative feelings like resentment.
