8 signs to leave a toxin relationship

Knowing when to leave a relationship is one of the most confusing aspects of long-term dating. Because you're emotionally involved, you may be completely torn about what you should do, 

 Here are 8 signs to keep moving.

1. Physical abuse

Whether it is a one-night thing where you got slapped by your drunk partner, or it's a continual barrage of chronic physical abuse that comes from emotional arguments; when it gets to these points, trust is broken and it's probably going to be over. The person you used to look to protect you has now become someone who will harm you when things go wrong.

2. Addiction

Whether it's gambling, drugs, alcohol or something else, when your partner has become addicted to the point that it becomes a problem and is affecting your well being, or they have betrayed your trust, the relationship is doomed. If they do not wish to stop and continue their addictive behavior, then it would be in your best interest to leave.

3. Deception

Although our lovely media have made you believe lying is normal for men and women, it's not normal for a healthy relationship. The most important thing that needs to be in place in order to have a real, deep and meaningful relationship with someone else is trust. 

4. Cheating

Unless you have an agreement to be in an open relationship, cheating is unacceptable. 

5. Disrespect

This can come in many forms, but in this case I am referring to someone mistreating their partner through constant verbal abuse, mind games and degradation. If you're in a relationship where your partner is the type to put you down, talk down to you, and make a fool of you for the sake of laughter, then it's time to reconsider your relationship.

6. It's unbalanced

If you find yourself in a relationship that is totally unbalanced in the favor of your partner, then you are not in a relationship, you are in a dictatorship. 

7. Ego based

If you are in a relationship where you have realized that you somehow have let your ego fool you into dating someone who you would never date, whether it's because you're lonely or to feed your ego, then it's definitely time to reevaluate what the hell you are doing. Many times, someone will become the object of our desire simply because they are a challenge to us.

8. life goal.

Is it your life's mission to become an astronaut, but your partner refuses to move to Mars with you? You might both be holding each other back.

This is nobody's fault, and sometimes this issue is resolvable with compromise or some creative planning. However, if something important to you is always on the back-burner because of your partner's needs, then resentment will slowly start to build in you.
