Absolutely! I have an amazing husband who can never get the special days (birthday, Christmas, etc.) right. Our day to day lives are amazing and yet those special days always seem to be crappy. I also have a mother in law who causes the one or two fights a year that we have and she has by her own words abused my son when he was 8 months old. The woman causes me more stress than I knew could be caused by 1 human being that I don't even live with, she is 1 1/2 away.
I would never give Peter up for any of those reasons. I can't imagine even one day without him in my life. He is my other half. He loves me 109.5%, he told me just last week. No one is perfect so as long as his imperfections are something that I can live with that is what makes it work.
Relationships are work but as long as there is respect, compromise and real love it is always worth it.

Can you do without sex? Can you live by yourself without the need for the opposite sex or the need for an intimate relationship with a person? If you can't then companionship is worth the hassle and worth everything that needs for it to remain strong. Best thing to do is to make sure that you talk and asks questions of what you are looking for in the opposite sex and what you are willing to offer and contribute to making a companionship successful and strong. If you can spend your older years in life alone then companionship is not worth the hassle. The main thing is to know that dealing with another person does bring other issues and therefore you must be willing to work with them till you can come to place where you will not be physically, emotionally or verbally abused but rather built up and encouraged regularly. Avoid sexual relations (for medical reasons and psychological and emotional stability) till there is the security of marriage in place (after you have established a great friendship together).

I truly believe it is worth the "hassles" as you say especially when you have met the RIGHT one that you want to be with... I have just recently found the true love of my life and we have no hassles at all we have never been in a fight or an argument and we have lived together for over 6 months and dated for a little over 7 months but we have known each other for almost a year and we are now engaged and planning a commitment ceremony with each other. I think I wanted a witness to my life as well as a partner

The hassles in a relationship are part of what builds strength in one. When you find the person who completes you, whose bs is not as bad as the good i good, it's worth it. I've been married for 17 years now and thru all the hassles and all the crap that goes with being with someone for this long, i would not change it for the world. I love my husband more now than when i first married him. Now we kinda laugh at the strife in our relationship.

You want companionship without hassles? Get a dog.
No backtalk, loyalty, affection and all for the price of a bowl of Dog Chow.

I agree about the dog.
You are NOT going to have ANY relationship with a human without "hassles". A relationship (mature one) gets through "hassles" and accepts they are part of life.
