In today's world, where love and relationships often look more like the perfect Instagram post than reality, questions about true happiness are often avoided. But what if I told you that two simple questions could be the key to discovering the truth about your relationship? Scottish stand-up comedian Daniel Sloss has already caused thousands of relationships to break up with his raw and honest view of love. But now is the time for you to face these questions and find out if your love story is really the right one.
In life, we often push hard questions to the side because we fear the answers that might come with them. But true love requires honesty and a willingness to face what scares us the most. Today I'm going to reveal to you these two questions that may change the way you look at your relationship and prepare you to take a step forward - either towards a deeper connection or towards a new freedom. Do you dare to embark on this journey of self-reflection and truth?

First question: Are you truly happy?
Do you ever find yourself staring at the sky and imagining a life in romantic movies where conflicts are resolved within two hours? Well, it's not that simple in real life. Ask yourself the first question: "Am I really happy with how I've spent the last few years with this person?" If the answer includes words like “maybe”, “sometimes”, or “who knows”, it may be time to investigate.
A question that can force you to look deep within yourself and consider whether you are truly happy. If you spend more time pining for the past or wishing for a different scenario, then you might be with the wrong person.
Second question: Do I want to spend the rest of my life like this?
Now for these tough questions: "Do I want to spend the rest of my life like this?" Imagine being stuck in an elevator with your loved one with no signal and a bad vent. If that thought makes you want to escape through the vent, then you have the answer. This question requires brutal honesty with yourself. If looking at the future with your current partner doesn't inspire joy, it's time to have a serious conversation.
Love puzzle
Daniel Sloss, a Scottish comedian with a keen sense of the truth, says that life is like a jigsaw puzzle. How many times have we tried to fit the wrong pieces into a puzzle, only to realize later that it doesn't work? True love is when both partners make up the whole picture together, without anyone forcing the pieces that don't fit together. If you already feel like you're constantly adjusting puzzle pieces, it might be time to consider whether you really fit.
Sloss reminds us that it is personal happiness more important than staying in the relationship, which does not work. True love does not mean that one person sacrifices their happiness for another. If both partners are not happy, it's time to think. Love should not consist of compromises that leave one of you unhappy. If you repeatedly give up your own wants and needs to satisfy your partner, then this is not love, but slavery with pink handcuffs.
The illusion of true love
Sometimes it seems that people stay in relationships because they are afraid of being alone, waiting for the right person. But true love is not an illusion that we create in our heads. It's a real, deep connection where you both strive for mutual happiness. If you can't be alone and happy, the question is whether you can ever find true love. A truly happy individual can find happiness with someone else, but not one who is desperate.
