Just as a good relationship can have a positive impact on your life, stressful,
draining, or imbalanced relationships can have negative effects on your health
and well-being. It's common to maintain a relationship because we feel the
other person needs us or we believe that they will eventually change. We may
also be afraid of hurting the other person or feel insecure in our ability to
find new relationships. But knowing when to end a relationship and
acknowledging that the pain will pass can often prevent greater pain and
feelings of loss in the long run.
If you're in a relationship that isn't satisfying or one that has become
unhealthy for you, rather than spending energy attempting to fix the problem or
complaining, ask yourself what you really want from the relationship.
Consider whether the other person truly considers your feelings or if they are
willing to change their behavior. Ask yourself if you've often thought about
ending the relationship or if you feel your bonds have atrophied. While every
relationship has ups and downs, when there are more downs than ups or the two
of you are bringing out the worst in each other, it may be time to sever the
connection. Be honest with yourself and your answers, even if the truth is
painful.
Relationships thrive on honesty, communication, mutual caring, and time spent
together. When one or more of these elements are missing, it may be that the
relationship, no matter how passionate, simply isn't worth it. It's far better
to end a relationship that doesn't feel right than to hold on to it and
languish in feelings of anger or resentment. Moving on without struggle, on the
other hand, can be the door that leads you to a more nurturing relationship in
the future.

I AM...
I am whatever YOU think I am until YOU get to KNOW me. This is true for everyone else too, of course.. so don't make assumptions about anyone or pass judgment; ask questions. You might just make a new friend.
