It's important that we all know ourselves well enough to know what are deal breakers for us--and what we consider workable behavior is, because treating deal breaker behavior like it's workable behavior is how (and one of the main reasons as to why) people stay in abusive relationships.  There is a difference between commitment and codependency. It's okay (and healthy) to not be dragged through hell by another person's behavior, and to get yourself to both a physical and emotional place where you can stay safe and sane. 

What are your deal breakers?  ...And what are your deal makers?
