TOP 3 SIGNS THAT IT IS TIME TO LEAVE A RELATIONSHIP

#1 WHEN YOU LIVE IN PAST MEMORIES, AND NOT THE PRESENT

“Sometimes I think I live more closely to the past than the present.”  ― Patricia Briggs, Dragon Bones

 

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.” – Unknown

If you’re not living in the present you’re living in an illusion of what was.

My advice to you,live in the present,live in acceptance, get over denial, you cannot possibly spend the rest of your life living in the past? Sadly, yes, you can actually, but that would be really depressing! Every moment spent in the past is a moment wasted!

If you worry about what might be, and wonder what might have been, you will ignore what is.” -Unknown

 

#2 WHEN THE RELATIONSHIP BRINGS YOU MORE PAIN THAN JOY

If your relationship leaves you frustrated/upset/unhappy more often than not, will you stay and bear all the pain?

Stay with someone who makes you feel great. Not the one who’s the reason why your heart breaks.

If someone truly loves you, he/she is never going to intentionally do anything to hurt you. If your partner does, then he/she doesn’t care about you. It makes no sense to stay in a relationship with someone who constantly hurts you. It is totally pointless.

#3. WHEN HE/SHE EXPECTS YOU TO CHANGE WHO YOU ARE.

The truest form of love is the one that accepts you for who you are.

Your partner shouldn’t expect you to change, he/she shouldn’t try to mold you into his/her “perfect” version of you.

Unless it’s for your own well-being (such as to quit smoking/drugs or to reduce on your drinking or to party less).

If your partner wants you to mature, to look good for a job interview, or to succeed; then in that case, he/she actually cares about you.

  But when your partner does not like something about you, and selfishly tries to make you change it, through subtle manipulation, outright forceful and annoying bitching, and or through abusive behaviors, there is a big problem!

He/she shouldn’t manipulate you but rather he/she should try to help you.

 

Being in a relationship shouldn’t change who you are though. It should add to your personality but never take away from it.
