Our society has predefined norms related to gender role and relationship among young adults. So when an individual does not follow these set norms, it can bring chaos for both individuals involved. Minor fights and arguments are common between partners, where small faults and dislikes are talked about. But when certain undesirable habits or unacceptable behavior become constant, it can create unsolvable issues for any couple.
... you sense that your emotions are being toyed with. A loving relationship is like a flower, which requires an ample amount of patience, care, trust, commitment, and compromise to survive and flourish. So when these elements are missing in your relationship, and hurtful behavior makes ceaseless appearances, it's time to put an end to it.
Any relationship, whether it is personal or professional, requires all the parties involved to be treated equally. The same goes for a couple who should be investing equal amounts of time to the relationship, where everything should be shared evenly; this includes chores, responsibilities, time, money, and effort. When one of the two starts to pull back or isn't as committed as the other, the relationship is bound to fail.
Everyone has a past. People make certain choices or mistakes that they are accountable for. If your partner is giving you a hard time about your past relationships or choices you've made, you need to make it clear that this kind of behavior is unacceptable. Whether your choices were right or wrong, they were made by you; and nobody has the power to challenge them because these choices have brought you to where you are today.
Why do we work? It's simple, actually; so we can spend it on food, water, shelter, for our secured future, and the things we want in life. It's easy to spend money, but to do so responsibly is tough. Not everyone knows how to be financially responsible, save for the future, and differentiate between 'want' and 'need'. So if you feel that your partner is spending his/her or your money uncontrollably, it's time to have the talk.
Not being able to communicate properly with the person you're involved with is a deal breaker. It's common to sometimes run out of topics to discuss on. But when you and your partner can't even have a normal conversation, or won't share the details of your lives with one another, how can you expect the relationship to flourish? Lack of communication only increases the distance between a couple, and this gap is difficult to bridge.
When your partner starts keeping tabs on you, or begins snooping through your stuff, you should call him/her on it. Spying is unacceptable, under any circumstances, and should never, ever be tolerated. This behavior from your partner means that they don't trust you completely and need to know what you do at all times. When you haven't done anything wrong and have nothing to hide from your partner, he/she has no right to spy on you.
This is one of the most common, yet neglected behavior among couples. When you start becoming comfortable around your partner, it's natural to listen and do anything and everything he/she says. But there is one thing that is overlooked in such situations - your ideas, beliefs, and opinions are strangled. No matter how long you've been with someone, you cannot let anyone suppress your individuality.
It's easy to say that when something isn't working in a relationship, you should end it and move on. But it becomes tough for those involved in such relationships to actually muster up the courage and do what seems right. So my advice to you is to be absolutely sure about what you want in your relationship and how you wish to be treated. When you are clear with your intentions, no one has the power to bring you down. Author's Note - Recently, I read a book by Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower (which has been made into a movie as well). In the novel, there is a line said by one of the characters that might describe the feelings or thoughts behind people who do tolerate and stay in an unhappy relationship - We accept the love we think we deserve.
Of course, compromise is necessary; you can't just leave or break off every relationship you're in just because things aren't as smooth as you wished they would be. But if things are getting out of control and forcing you to stay in an unhappy relationship, then it is time to break free. Nobody wishes to stay in an unsatisfying relationship and suffer in silence. There are some obvious signs, habits, and actions that should never be tolerated. No matter how much you love your partner, there comes a time when you need to stop and say - enough is enough. Men and women are guilty of both, committing and enduring such behavior. Which is why it is important to nip such behavior in the bud, or just exclude yourself out of the equation.
Stop Suffering and Call it Quits When ...... you sense that your emotions are being toyed with.
