Have you ever had a bad relationship? If so, when you think back to it, you probably tell yourself, "Why did I wait so long to break up? I should have just dumped him!"

However, in your current relationship, things are not smooth either. Despite obvious dissatisfaction, you cannot leave your partner.

You believe that it is still possible to “glue a broken vase together.” Maybe you want to instill good qualities in a man. Maybe you are getting some benefit from this love affair. Only you know the answer.

Of course, you shouldn't dump a man after the first argument or domestic problem. But sometimes it's not worth putting off the inevitable breakup. Otherwise, you'll regret wasting so much time living with an incorrigible lover.

What are the signs that it's time for you to get out of a dead-end relationship?

1. You constantly justify his actions and behavior.

The husband devoured all the meat dishes, leaving only vegetables for a side dish, pasta and potatoes. He didn't even think about the fact that you were preparing these dishes for the whole family.

You were upset by his disgusting behavior, but you quickly found a convincing excuse for your other half: he was very tired and hungry after a day at work, so he ate whatever he saw.

In fact, you know his selfish nature very well. He doesn't care about your efforts and labors, or about the children who are left without meat. You will cook another pot of cutlets and goulash, and the children will snack on pasta and vegetable salad. Why don't you want to face the truth?

2. You don’t want to be around a man.

Physical contact is a very necessary and useful thing in a relationship. When you first moved in together, you enjoyed spending time together: you sat together on the couch in front of the TV, hugged, kissed, and petted each other.
In short, touching gave you special joy. And now you try to cross paths with your man less often, so that he does not touch your shoulders or waist once again. By the way, he also stopped liking your head massage and stroking your back. You both strive to spend time separately.

3. Your chosen one does not want to support you.

Your life partner is obliged to walk hand in hand with you, no matter what happens. His task is to convince you that you can conquer any peaks. The beloved man should not ignore your brightness, intelligence, beauty and self-sufficiency. Believe me, it is normal when you think that he values you too highly.

But if your chosen one has lost faith in you and has started to often say these phrases: “You can’t do it,” “You don’t understand anything about it,” “You’ll never learn,” and others, then it’s time to say goodbye to him.

4. You sacrifice your dreams.

At the beginning of the relationship, you had many goals and desires. But then you gave them up. You were hampered by everyday reasons and the stubbornness of your loved one. Time passed, and you regretted that your main dreams did not come true. You did not graduate from college, did not learn Chinese, Italian and French, did not learn to drive a car.

You acknowledge the fact that your life has started to change for the worse since this man came into it. Before you met him, you felt happy and capable of moving mountains, and now you suffer as if you were a prisoner in a high tower.

5. Problems and conflicts prevail in your union

Do your friends tell you that they never quarrel with their significant others? Don't take their words at face value, this doesn't happen. The union of a man and a woman is impossible without arguments and disagreements. But they should be in moderation.
If you have been constantly fighting and yelling at each other for all the years you have lived with this man, then it is in vain that you continue to live with him. Remember: pleasant moments and positive memories should outweigh the negative, and not vice versa.

6. You don’t like your current life at all.

You are unhappy with everything: your relationship with your life partner, your boring job, your surroundings, your appearance, the lack of career growth. You want to put in maximum effort to make everything work out successfully, but you constantly delay making the necessary changes. Perhaps you have forgotten about the importance and limitations of time.

Now you are young, healthy and energetic, which means you can arrange your destiny in the best possible way. But when you grow old together with a person who constantly drags you down, you will finally lose everything. Run away from him while it is not too late!
