Tearing You Apart: 6 Bad Habits That Ruin Relationships

5. Let Yourself Go

Nobody expects couples to look like they fell out of a fashion photo shoot, but maintaining standards of hygiene and grooming is always important,  so why drop the habit when you’re in a relationship? If you put on those extra 20 pounds, stop brushing your hair and restrict yourself to jogging pants as standard dress attire, what makes you think your partner won’t notice? Although love is not about physical beauty, it is about self-respect, and taking care of yourself throughout the relationship will make you feel attractive as a person. So don’t be a slob just because you’ve already found someone, because you may end up alone if you keep up the slovenliness.
