Or give self fulfilling predictions about how bad everything is going to be.
Like someone posted in this thread somewhere, these sorts of things *can* be worked out in small, uncontentious discussions.
Let's take any super common scenario like two people agreeing to alternate treating each other but one person makes more than the other.
Reasonable person #1: "I really value the time we spend together but the places we go are stretching my money. Can we agree to go someplace cheaper?"
Reasonable person #2: "I'm so sorry, I didn't realize this was such a burden. I definitely want to keep doing this so let's agree on something that works for us both."
2p2er: "You agreed to go someplace and now they're backing out? Red flag! Dump that gold digging broke ass *****! Also she's cheating on you! Also pics."
