When they start feeling like a dreadful chore.

For me it's when I have at least 90% confidence that I can do better. It's never really about what you dislike about the person, it's about the probability that you can walk back into the dating market and be assured that you will pull a better deal rather quickly. There is no point in looking for a minor improvement, it's just not worth redoing all the time and effort it takes to connect just to get a minor upgrade. So you have to be certain that you're working with absolute awful conditions that you know you're not going to have trouble pulling better before you leave what you've already worked for.

All the time? When we fight? I think most of the time theres no issue but we fight over small things(equally my fault). And recently I’ve just been getting so tired of fighting, resolving things, and the making up and feeling better

When you prefer to be alone, than with them

Love is a choice, at one point you might look at your partner and feel just as much as emotion as looking at a cardboard box. However, communication and work has to be put both ways.

I personally don't stop trying until I've seen my partner give up.

I don’t want to stop trying either but I’m just mentally and emotionally exhausted at this point

Couples therapy! It does wonders when you feel stuck.
