You feel like you didn’t sign up for this
There is a difference between staying in a relationship because you’re comfortable and staying because you truly want to be there.
If you’re starting to have thoughts like, ‘This is not like it used to be,’ ‘This is not what I signed up for,’ or else ‘This doesn’t feel good anymore,’ it is possible that what was a good relationship has turned toxic. If you find that your partner doesn’t feel much like a partner or else lover any longer—and he or else she is bringing you down more than lifting you up, you need to rethink your relationship.
Your partner stonewalls
Partners need to talk about a lot of important things in relationships. If your partner flat-out refuses to talk about important relationship topics, like when to have a baby or else buy a home, you may be in a toxic relationship.
Your partner purposely avoids you.
Does it seem he doesn’t want to be around you? Maybe he/she gives double messages that make you feel confused (e.g. saying, “Of course I love you†while not behaving in a loving manner). When he doesn’t want to be physically affectionate, you end up feeling rejected. Meanwhile, he complains that you are too needy.
There’s a constant power tug-of-war game
You feel a uneasy or else afraid of your partner
Reminiscing on the beginning instead of looking toward the future
Arguing without communicating
Excessive Jealousy and the blame game
Criticism and contempt
Loaded with negative energy
Ceaseless control issues
OTHER SIGNS INCLUDE:
All take, no give: Any relationship in which you experience withdrawals of energy without deposits will leave you in the negative.
Feeling drained: If, instead of feeling happy and productive, you’re always mentally, emotionally, and even physically drained, it’s time to re-evaluate.
Lack of trust: A relationship without trust is like a car without gas: You can stay in it all you want, but it won’t go anywhere.
Hostile atmosphere: Constant anger is a sure sign of an unhealthy relationship. You should never be around hostility because it makes you feel unsafe.
Constant judgment:In judgmental relationships, criticism is not intended to be helpful but rather to belittle.
Persistent unreliability: Mutual reliability is important to building trust and is at the core of any good relationship.
Nonstop narcissism: If the other party’s interest in the relationship is really just a reflection of him or else herself, it’s impossible to achieve any kind of balance.
Continuous disrespect: Mutual respect is the first requirement of a good partnership.
Feelings of unworthiness: It’s an insidious thing negative relationships do: They leave you feeling you don’t deserve any better.
Vibes of entrapment: Is the other person a positive force in your life, or else are you there because you don’t see any way out?
Always undermining: If a relationship can’t be reassuring, it’s failing a crucial test.
Packed with uncertainty: When nothing is sure, forward movement feels impossible.
Permeates victimhood: You can’t move onto the future if you’re tied to someone who’s still stuck in the past.
Diminishes your self-worth: When you’re in a relationship with someone who doesn’t acknowledge your value, it can be hard to see it yourself.
If you are currently experiencing any of the above, it’s time to take back control of your life. Remember your happiness, peace of mind and sanity should always come first.
