In other words, when things are going badly in a relationship, the consensus is to quit that relationship, and find another.

I think the issue is that by the time people feel the need to post, any sort of real salvaging potential has past.
This isn't about things going badly, but that things have been bad for a LONG time, the poster has made various horrible choices, and now they are asking us to help them save a train wreck.

*shrug* Whatever works, I guess.
