How to tell if you’re in a toxic relationship?
When you don’t know whether you’re more scared of not ending up together or ending up together. Let me explain..
When you think of your partner, they mean the world to you. You have this vision of your perfect future together with them, you have all these plans, and sometimes it seems like the world could crumble if those plans don’t come true.
Then there are bad days. I know relationship all have bad days, but a bad day in a toxic relationship could make you question everything. You’re scared of what’s in front of you but then you’re also scared at the thought of “What if this is it? Is this what my life is gonna be like? Is this love?” And it scares you to your core that the answer is yes. And the only reason the answer is yes is because of you, bc you can’t leave a situation that isn’t good for you and your mental/emotional/physical health.
So what’s more scary? Losing the imaginary future you’ve constructed in your head, or spending a life you know the inevitable outcome is that you’re not happy nor taken cared of?
