   Our readingA partner's difficult trait becomes tolerable only if their good qualities outweigh it and you don't feel alone dealing with its effects.

   Their wordsMy general view on a partner with a challenging quality is that to make peace with it, two things need to be true: 1. They have enough wonderful qualities you value to compensate for it, and 2. They don't make you feel alone or lonely in dealing with the runoff of said challenging quality.
