The relationship may be in trouble – but six months ago it was even worse, wasn’t it? How people talk their partnership nice.

If love takes longer and togetherness becomes chronic, the butterflies eventually stick together to form tough stomach sediment. The once pink-colored glasses get a green tinge and now draw attention to socks lying around, open toilet seats and the annoying constant chewing on the same topics over and over again. What started out as passion is now called relationship – and the prospect of a future together sometimes seems more like a threat than a promise. But even if the marriage is in crisis, love is crumbling, and your partner is annoying: the always committed PR department in the human brain knows how to sugarcoat tired partnerships. The propaganda organ under the skullcap also follows the instructions in love affairs: It is better to live in a fluffy illusion than to lie on the cold concrete floor of reality.
