Stupid Egotism: asking now what you can do for the relationship but only what the relationship can do for you 3. Stupid Pettiness: making a big deal out of the small stuff 4. Stupid Power: the need to always be in control 5. Stupid Priorities: consuming all your time and energies with work, hobbies, errands and chores instead of focusing on your relationship 6. Stupid Happiness: seeking stimulation and assurance from all the wrong places to satisfy the immature need to feel good 7. Stupid Excuses: not being accountable for bad behaviour 8. Stupid Liaisons: not letting go of negative attachments to friends and relatives who are damaging to your relationship 9. Stupid Mismatch: not knowing when to leave and cut your losses 10.
