Is It Time To End This Relationship?
It’s not always easy to know if you should remain in the relationship you’re in, especially if you have children together or a long history. Here are a few indications your relationship may be over, even if it hasn’t officially ended.
1. You can’t stand the sight of them and they make your skin crawl.
2. You are afraid of them.
3. Friends keep telling you to get out.
4. They are mean to the children.
5. The children are afraid of them.
6. You can’t remember anything good about them.
7. You no longer enjoy anything with them or look forward to doing anything with them.
8. They come in the door and your heart sinks.
9. You don’t want to go out with them with friends or family because they are too embarrassing.
10. They keep making promises they don’t keep.
11. You’re no longer proud of them.
12. Quirks you originally found amusing are now embarrassing to you.
There is good and bad news about this list.

The bad news is that if anything on this list applies, it is probably not going to get any better by itself.
