I think every relationship is absurdly hard actually. But beyond that, people have expectations, such as loyalty, material support, love, someone who doesn't abuse them. Once upon a time, a lot of women and men didn't have these very basic expectations you take for granted. Even today, a lot of people don't have these expectations.

People have expectations regardless of whether or not they voice them and generally they were there to begin with, at these basic levels, but in the past due to the inequity of gender relations, women were not allowed to escape from abusive relationships with cheating men or were abandoned with children by men who did not wish to fulfill their material responsibilities.

Duality is not a requirement(more a condiment) any more than love(also a condiment) for people to have relationships. I'm glad that people have the opportunity to pursue love and to even entertain the idea of duality.

If you think you don't have expectations, you're simply delusional.
