How to Recognize a Toxic Relationship in a Couple: 12 Signs
It is not always the case that a person who finds themselves in such a relationship understands who their partner is.
In this case, women are more often the victims, but there are also cases where men also suffer from such a union.
Therefore, it is important to understand in time that you are in an unhealthy situation.
For example, when your partner points out your shortcomings too often, you should think about it.
In addition, the abuser likes to control his partner and can create a scandal because of a missed call.
You may also be mildly isolated from your friends and family, convinced that they are not good company.
In toxic relationships there is a spirit of competition, successes and achievements can be belittled. Naturally, respect is out of the question.
It is worth noting that this also includes the fact that a person constantly forgets important dates, agreements, is late, but at the same time demonstratively takes offense at claims or during an argument. In some cases, manipulation and threats are possible.
In addition, in unhealthy relationships, the partner allows “emotional swings” when he or she alternates indifference with warmth and care.
It is worth reconsidering your union if you are presented with excessive demands, as well as when your feelings and desires are called into question.
You can recognize abuse by some other signs. For example, when any attempt to defend your freedom, position or opinion causes aggression or resentment in your partner.
If you are constantly feeling empty or unhappy, then this is a clear sign that it is time to end this relationship.
