I wish media depicted more healthy relationships.

And when they do they often portray them as effortless "found my soulmate" kind of relationships which is not how the real world works. Even if you have an amazing partner you need to put in effort to be an amazing partner to them yourself.

The fairy tale love affairs of fictional people hardly ever linger on the "mundane everyday loving behaviour" that I consider core to a functioning relationship.

I literally put that crap in the trash right along with the depictions of dysfunctional relationships in media.

Depictions of happy relationships, are not automatically depictions of healthy relationships.

That's why I like the series Heartbreaker so much. It shows healthy relationships, and it also shows how hard relationships (and life in general) can still be.
