Signs of an Unhealthy Relationship

Most of us realize what's wrong in a relationship when it's already over. We tend to be blinded by love and the notion that things will eventually get better when actually they really won't!

One of the signs of an unhealthy relationship is when the other person is neglected. One person will care and focus on himself while the other person is taken for granted. When this happens, the other person's feelings are usually not taken into consideration. Remember that a relationship involves a two-way street. The needs of both persons have to be met as much as possible. A relationship is supposed to make you feel loved and cared for.

Constant jealousy and distrust is also one of the signs of an unhealthy relationship. While a little jealousy is normal, being jealous every time your lover turns around and talk to somebody else is not healthy. If you spend all your time trying to figure out whether your partner is cheating on you or not, you're putting a big stress on your relationship. Do not be with somebody you can't trust. It's either you completely trust somebody or not at all. Another scary thing about jealousy is how the person reacts. If you experience any emotional, verbal or physical abuse from the other person then it's time for you to head out the door.

Losing one's self is one of the signs of an unhealthy relationship as well. When you are so in love with someone, you tend to neglect what you were before you entered the relationship; you tend to forget the people around you. You forget who you really are and it almost feels like you are living your life based on how your partner expects you to. Your world starts to revolve around him and you don't see your friends anymore. You have to learn how to balance everything so you won't neglect other important things in your life.
