I have been thinking about this for a while, unsure how to present it, because it sounds bad, but here it is.
There is no person in this world worth fighting for.
Here's why.
I see posts every now and then, usually about a woman, but it applies to men too, who was cheated on, or whose spouse has a wandering eye, and the advice ranges from "leave his sorry butt" to "if you love him, fight for him." But here's the thing. If he wanted to be with you, he would not stray. If you fight for someone who doesn't truly want to be with you, what does that say about your self image? Why are you fighting to be with someone who doesn't want to be with you? You are worth so much more as a human being. You have more to offer someone than what you have between your legs. If you "can't keep a man" it doesn't have anything to do with you, and everything to do with him. If he strays, that sucks, but my advice is to leave. Be with someone who actually deserves you, wants to be with you. Don't settle for less. Don't settle for someone you are madly in love with but the feelings are not returned. You are worth being loved just as deeply as you love.
So don't fight for someone who isn't worth fighting for. If you go through hard times, fight together, WITH your partner, to fix the marriage. If your partner isn't going to fight with you, they aren't worth staying with or fighting for. Don't fight for someone not worth having.
