The notion of there being someone out there who matches you perfectly or completes you is bullshit. Relationships are complex things that require hard work and compromise if you want then to work.

This is some whiny, self-pity emo cringe and is frankly insulting to people who have made relationships work like the two on the couch who I guarantee you didn't just fit together easily without the aforementioned hard work and compromise.

Or it's just a comic about a fucked up dog.

What counts is not so much how compatible you are but how you deal with incompatibility.
