Relationships are hard, but sometimes you can just tell when they're not going to work out. In today’s blog, I’m talking about relationships. More specifically, the 5 signs that your relationship is doomed and what you can do about it.
Now, if you're in a healthy relationship then chances are you don't need to worry about any of these signs. But if things have been rocky for a while or you just have a feeling that something isn't right then keep reading because this blog could help save your relationship.
The other day, I was loving on an article written in Essence the other day about Shaunie O’neal who is soon to marry Pastor Keion Henderson.
In the article she is quoted as saying, “love feels easy, I think that he makes it easy to love him, to love this relationship….”
I absolutely agree with what she said. She went on to say, "It can be tedious, but it shouldn't be so stressful or hard or consuming. And you know, work that I want to go to, work that I want to show up for."
This is a great way to look at relationships. While relationships can be a lot of work, they should also be something you want to show up for.
It would help if you didn't dread spending time with your partner or felt like you were constantly fighting. Contrary to popular belief, love is not a battlefield, and it should be something that feels easy and natural. If it doesn't, maybe that's not the right relationship for you. Work on relationships that make you feel good and are worth your time and energy.
Relationships shouldn't be something that takes all your energy to maintain, and they should add to your life, not take away from it.
From the outside, relationships can look like a beautiful bloom in a field of flowers. But what if that bloom is actually headed for doom?
How can you tell if the relationship you are cultivating is destined to wilt? Here are some warning signs to watch out for:
1. You're Always Walking On Eggshells. If you find yourself constantly tiptoeing around your partner, it's a sign that something is wrong. Relationships should be built on trust and mutual respect, not fear.
2. You're Not Growing Together. If you and your partner are not growing and evolving together, it's a sign that the relationship is not healthy. Instead of supporting each other's growth, you hold each other back.
3. You're Not Having Any Fun. Relationships should be enjoyable! If you're not having fun with your partner, it's a sign that something is wrong. Instead of feeling happiness, joy, and love, you feel anxious, stressed, and drained.
4. You're Ignoring Red Flags. Suppose you choose to ignore obvious red flags in the relationship. In that case, it's a sign that you are in denial about the actual state of the relationship. It's important, to be honest with yourself and listen to your gut instinct.
5. You're Not On The Same Page. Suppose you and your partner constantly argue or feel like you're never on the same page. In that case, it's a sign that the relationship is unhealthy. You should be able to compromise and see eye-to-eye on important issues.
If you see any of these red flags in your relationship, please take a step back and assess the situation. Ignoring these warning signs will only lead to heartache down the road.
