Is Your Relationship Heading South?

How can you say whether your relationship is going bad or not?

Here are 5 signs a relationship is going bad.....

• Your partner insults you in front others
• Your partner says they love you but do not follow it up with actions, when they do, it's rare!
• Your partner is controlling and overly suspicious – reading your mail and checking on you....RED FLAG!! RUN!! Seriously.....you don't need an over obsessive crazy like this!
• Your partner does not want you to handle anything independently,.....of course not, f you are independent, you don't need him/her! They want to disable you.
• You have compromised your interests to accommodate their wishes...never never never do this.....do it once and they expect it all the time! Do things for you and remain independent!

Bad relationships have bad partners who make you feel sick even by being around them. Hello? what about this sentence doesn't scream "Oh Hell No?" If you feel sick around them and you stay, it's your own fault.
So why on earth would anyone want to be in a relationship as bad as this? Why would anybody choose to be with a bad partner who can physically or emotionally traumatize them?

Even a bad relationship has a cycle. First, there is the honeymoon period followed by an explosion and then restoration.....and then the cycle starts afresh.In the initial stages of meeting a new partner, it is obvious that you are in the honeymoon stage. Until you are drawn deeper into the relationship you will not realize that you are in a bad relationship. But it is too late to get out.....of, if you really believe that its too late to get out...something is wrong....take it from me, married for 17 years and got out! It's never too late.

When you see the signs of a relationship breakdown, the first step of opting out is to understand that you do have choices, yes, you DO have choices!! You are not destined to stay put. Often people who put up with bad relationships suffer from low self esteem or depression. Why would you ever let another person make you feel so poorly about yourself? I just don't get it...Now that you understand that you have choices, the next step is to begin taking a stand for yourself. In most bad relationships, the bad partner blames it all on you stating that everything is your fault. This is SO NOT TRUE!!! If you buy that argument, it becomes very difficult to walk away from the relationship or even set new boundaries that can heal the relationship, don't let this happen to you!

For some, therapy works...if you have a good therarpist that is.....Working with therapy groups can help people get out of or rejuvenate horrible relationships. There is good news. Some people do manage to break the cycle of bad relationships. They tend to leave the relationships and form new and healthier ones. Are you finding that your relationship is way of course and you've just lost direction? Do you need a map to figure out where you're going to go from here? Remember, do what is best for you for all reasons not just for the obvious one. Choose the right path....when you come to that fork in the road? Follow your heart and let it give you some direction!
