The Honey has very different relationship structures and needs than I do. How on earth does he put up with me?

Love. That's all he needs.

Choice. Free will. I'd say the benefits outweigh the negative aspects. :) He might even wonder at the same question you just asked.

I think most people can reflect that question onto their own situation so long as they're in a relationship.
Nobody has exactly the same needs, and I'd be surprised if there are very many where the paired sets of needs fully match up.

When I ask the same question, I usually find myself following it, koan style, with "I am so lucky."
