Most of my relationship-stress has been about "attention." The women I've dated all wanted more of it. I've dated three women seriously/long-term, and all three complained of it. Two ended the relationship over it. One of those women I was madly in love with.
I still agree there is no assurance that it would have made the relationships last any longer; however, I'd feel better about my role in those relationships, if nothing else.
To me, sharing your time with others is one important metric for a life well-lived. I'd just like to be a better human, and I think this is one way I can work on it.
