Top Signs That It Is Time To Give Up The Relationship

You have been in a relationship with this guy for over 5 years and now you feel suffocated? Do you feel something needs to be changed so that you can breathe?  Not many people are strong enough to acknowledge such feelings and ignore the signs. It is important to think about whether the relationship feels like a burden that you can no longer handle emotionally. In case you believe that ending the relationship will make you feel liberated and happier, it is because the relationship is not worth it. Here are some signs that it is time to give up on the relationship:

You prefer living in the past than the present
Do you like spending time thinking about the first time you met, the last time your partner took you out for a dinner or the last time brought a gift for you? If your answer to these questions is Yes, then  it is a clear signal that things are not fine. The memories are beautiful, but if you are trapped in the past because your present is not pleasant. It is the time to take an action.

The relationship brings you more sorrows than happiness
Life is a perfect mix of emotions like sorrows, happiness, disappointments and joys. But in case you feel that your relationship only brings pain and sorrow, it is the time to reconsider. Also, if you are always complaining to your best friend about how your relationship gives you pain, it is a sign that the relationship is not healthy. Being in such a relationship only gives you emotional and mental pain.


The partner wants to change you
When somebody loves you, they should love you for who you are, not what they want you to be. The partner must accept you the way you are. If your partner is always telling you how important it is for you to change, you seriously need to reconsider your decision. If you decide to change for your partner just to please them, sooner or later you will start feeling suffocated. In a relationship if one of the partners is trying to control your actions, it is an indication to walk out of it.

You keep justifying the action of your partner to yourself
If you are in a situation where you keep justifying the actions of your partner all the time, it is an indication that your partner doesn’t understand you. The fact that you have to justify his or her actions indicate that there is a lack of communication, which is the base of any healthy relationship. In this case it is advisable to consider whether it is best to be together or not.

Last but not the least, in case the relationship is not letting you grow, step out as soon as possible. It is part of human nature to grow and move forward. Being in a relationship with someone who has different preferences, beliefs and values is futile if you cannot reach at an agreement.
