Why we use "It's been tough to handle" instead "It's being tough to handle"?
- Inglés (US)
"it's BEEN tough to handle" implies that in the PAST it is tough to handle. "it's BEING tough to handle" implies that at this very moment it is being tough to handle. However, both can work depending on the situation. I hope this helps!

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Inglés (US)
Been is past tense. Without the contraction "it's" the sentence reads,
"It has been tough to handle." You're talking about the length of time up until now.
Being is present tense. You would say,
"It is tough." instead of using being.

because the action began in the past and continues in the present.
and English have a special tense to describe these kinds of situations it's called the "present perfect tense"
