This person tends to be either more attractive, wealthier, smarter, personable or some other quality that would seemingly make their partner look inferior, to the extent that people begin to question why they would even date in the first place.

Calling one person a settler in a relationship is talking shit about the relationship. These are the same hypocrites that would call somebody else a homewrecker for doing the same with their life.
