Are you in a toxic relationship? Do you want to finish it, but are not sure how?

The toxic relationship can hurt you, physically and emotionally. Sometimes you can be in a toxic relationship and not even know it.

Dating is the time when most people do their best. So if you’re seeing the warning signs of a toxic relationship, it may be time to end it.

Here are some steps to help you recognize and end a toxic relationship:

To recognize: Acknowledge that there is a problem. Sometimes it is easy to miss some things. But does he always seem to be making up for something he did to hurt you? Take off the pink glasses and see the situation as it is. You must admit that there is a problem before you can solve it.

Identify: Does he criticize you, complain, exhaust you, shame you, or blame you for everything that happens in his life? These are just a few of the warning signs of a toxic relationship. If you see her now showing these signs while you’re dating, trust me, things won’t get better with time. As you become more comfortable, your true personality will begin to show and these behaviors will worsen.

Analyze: You must decide whether the positives of your relationship outweigh the negatives. If you don’t analyze the relationship and see for yourself that the cost of maintaining the relationship is too high, chances are you will give in and get back with it.

Communication: Confront him. Try to be neutral. This is not the time for anger on your part. Tell him what bothers you about his behavior and how it makes you feel. You can ask him to change the behavior if you want to give the relationship a chance. If not, cut all ties with him.

Separation: Get away. You need to heal. Even a few days in a toxic relationship can cause harm. Recover your happiness and self-esteem. Take the time to assess what is important to you. Build a support network of friends and family. Start to see why you accepted this toxic man into your life.

Rules and limits: You need to set clear rules and limits. Set a standard of behavior for yourself and for any man you allow in your life. Commit to rebuilding your life to prevent toxic people from entering it. If that means seeking professional help or joining a support group, go for it. Do whatever it takes to make sure all your future relationships are healthy.

Zero tolerance: Over time, your rules and limits will become part of your life. You will have set your limits and have probably tested them. But you need to have a zero tolerance policy for toxic people. Never put yourself in another situation where your self esteem and self esteem are trampled on by someone. Always be on the lookout for these negative people and be ready to remove them from your life as soon as you can.

Following these steps will allow you to end your toxic relationship. Get your life back. And be prepared to make healthy decisions in relationships.

Psychologist Dr. Lillian Glass, author of “Toxic People,” says you’re in a toxic relationship if you feel down, angry, exhausted, deflated, belittled, or confused when you interact with a person. A healthy relationship, on the other hand, makes you feel energetic, powerful, and good about yourself.
