We all know that relationships can be tough, but sometimes adding a little too much fuel to the fire can cause it to explode.

However, there is a plot twist, this listener believes that she may be addicted to drama. 

She further describes that he is her perfect match, but, at times, she feels the need to pick arguments with him for no reason to spice up their relationship.

We asked our audience on our social platforms to get their take on things...

Many listeners offered advice, saying: "Recognition of self sabotage is the first step toward change" and "Have to choose what you love more, drama or your man?"

Another said: "You will feel better because all women feel that way."

Although a majority of other listeners decided to be spicy about the whole "addicted to drama" thing, we hope that this listener takes all the advice we have to give her and unlearns the toxic or frivolous traits she is using as a lifeline in her relationship.
