At one wedding a few years ago, however, a crew of bridesmaids was flabbergasted when the bride, a close friend, decided to marry an entirely different man than anticipated. One of the attendants recounted the disastrous tale on Reddit a few months ago. “I definitely need to tell the story,” she wrote on the forum’s “Wedding Shaming” thread.

Relationships are a two-way street in all aspects. While partners do cover for each other every now and then, there still needs to be a certain level of balance. Over the past few decades, the institution of marriage in the United States has seen a significant decline of about 60% since the 1970s, reports CNBC.

Unhappiness is not unique in marriage, and if we are honest, we should expect to weather some tough seasons when we consider remaining faithful to loving one extraordinarily flawed human for a lifetime.

Here’s how to know you’ve overstayed your welcome, even when—and especially when—a gracious host has made you feel right at home.
