You can see in Lucas’ face the genuine concern he has for his friend. And you can see in Ethan’s face that he’s seriously considering what Lucas just said, and knows he may well have a point.

Honestly, I’ve been in that mindset.
“I can handle it, a little bit on my part means it’s easier for them.”
The problem is that it’s not that one time. It means giving a little bit, being the bigger person, again and again and again. With a chance that the other person gets so used to you giving that little bit that they don’t think it’s a big deal that you’re getting worn down from it.
It doesn’t mean that there isn’t room for compromises and adjustments in a relationship. But it needs to be done right.
With those kind of people the little bit is always followed by another little bit… and then another.. and then another. And before you know it, it’s a very big bit and your life is possibly ruined.
Been there, done that. Luckily I found my way out and found a better partner.

Just be a giver a bit longer Lucas. Ethan will return the favour later, when he’s found that he’s better off without Nicole.

Exactly.
