Letting go of someone special can be difficult, but staying in a toxic relationship can be harder
People usually tend to hold on to a relationship despite its toxicity. They get so blind in love that they lose sight of the bigger picture. They don’t pay attention to how it impacts their mental health and keep working harder to make their relationship work. Letting go of someone special can be difficult, but staying in a toxic relationship can be harder. Here are a few things that a person should never let go of in order to satisfy someone else.
Friends
Never leave those friends who have supported you through thick and thin. It is incredibly selfish on the side of your partner who wants you to give up your friends for them, and it is a sign that they are not the ideal one for you. In a relationship, friends and family co-exist together amicably, so if that’s not the case in your relationship, it’s time to make a change.
Don’t lose yourself
When we are in a relationship, we often act in ways that please our significant other. Sometimes it is alright for us to begin showing interest in what they are interested in, but it is never okay to lose ourselves in the process. When we lose sight of who we are and what we stand for, things spiral out of control. However, we start giving our partners the authority to make decisions for us when we start agreeing on everything, even when we don’t want to.
Self-respect
When our partner disrespects us, we frequently step outside of our comfort zones and do things for them that we wouldn’t otherwise do for anybody else. We become far too lenient and ignorant about their disrespectful behaviour towards us. Never give up the right to be treated with respect. If someone steps over this line, you should immediately ask them to stop. If you let this treatment go on, it will get worse, and eventually, affect your mental well-being.
