Do You Need To Leave A Toxic Relationship?
May 31, 2010 | Filed Under Dating | No CommentsHave you ever wondered if your relationship is a toxic one? Chances are that if you’re asking the question, then you have an edge over most people. Typically, people turn a blind eye and don’t realize just how bad the relationship is. Unfortunately, many simply accept things as they are and believe that all relationships have the problems they are facing because they’ve never had one that was any different.
Ask yourself, does your partner try to make you dependent on them? Are they supportive of your goals and aspirations? Do they contribute to the relationship or are you the one expected to give all of the time? Does your partner insult you, either in front of other or behind closed doors? These are all signs that you are in a toxic relationship and that you need to take action.
The Endless Cycle
Toxic relationships generally follow a cycle starting with a “fun/loving” period when you and your partner first became romantically involved. This great and joyful time is eventually replaced with a period of fighting, abuse, and or actions that hurt or take advantage of one partner. This will continue until there is a confrontation and a subsequent reconciliation. This reconciliation is a return to the “fun/loving” period that eventually gives way to start everything over again.
The ABCs of a Toxic Relationship
The reality is that most people who end up in toxic relationships were actually raised in a toxic family environment. This results in shaping their opinions on relationships and making them believe that normal relationships are abusive and toxic.
Above all else, you need to come to terms with the fact that you must make the choice to either leave or stay in the relationship. It is alright for you to expect more from your life, that includes expecting better treatment from your partner.
It is up to you to set boundaries and make sure that your partner knows that you’re not going to accept the relationship in it’s current, toxic form. This alone can sometimes break the cycle in the relationship and turn things around
Don’t Accept a Bad Relationship
If it turns out that your partner decides that they are not going to make changes to improve the relationship, you’ll have to make the move to leave. Yes, it will be difficult (especially if you two have been together for a long time), but you can make it happen.
Many times, everything comes down to respect. It is up to you to respect yourself enough to know that you deserve better in life. Also realize that a relationship is a two-way street and determine what your contributions to the negative situation may have been. This will ensure that you will be able to develop a healthy relationship with a better partner in the future.
