5 Signs That You Should Walk Away & Find Love Someplace Else

Don’t settle for anything less than you deserve and learn about the 5 signs that you should walk away and find love someplace else.

Not all good things are meant to last. This especially holds true for relationships. As beautiful and euphoric as the idea of falling in love is, it would be entirely naive to discount the possibility of breaking up. That is one of the few ugly truths that we need to face in our quest to find love.

This is not to say though that breaking up is easy. In fact, it’s downright brutal. But due to the fear of not being able to find love again along with the difficulty and inconvenience that goes with starting over, a lot of people tend to settle with their current relationship even if they are no longer happy in it.

So how exactly do you know that your relationship is running towards a dead-end or have reached a point beyond reconciliation?

Below we’ve rounded up 5 telling signs that you should cut your current relationship lose and find love someplace else:

1. It’s wearing you down Your relationship is supposed to be your safe haven and a space where you can recuperate from the stresses of the world. If it’s wearing you down and bringing you more stress than relief, then you know there’s something wrong with that relationship.


2. There’s no reciprocity
   Remember the old saying, it takes two to tango? Relationships are the perfect embodiment of that adage. In order to make a relationship work, you and your partner must be equally invested in it otherwise, it’ll just be a one-sided affair where you’ll be carrying all the weight on your shoulders.
   
   If you feel like your partner isn’t even trying at all, maybe it’s time you find the exit.


3. Arguments are far more frequent than meaningful talks
   When you argue and bicker about the smallest things, it’s a clear indicator of incompatibility. While there’s nothing wrong with occasional arguments and fights, it shouldn’t take up a significant part of your relationship.
   
   Once this becomes a regularity, it only means that you may have reached a point where communication has broken down and thereby rendered futile.


4. You’re filled with resentment and bitterness
   If the euphoria and excitement you originally felt when you first started seeing each other turned into resentment and bitterness, that’s usually because you just can’t see eye to eye on many things. As a result, you keep all your feelings to yourself because you feel like you don’t have a confidant in her.
   
   Being in that kind of a relationship will take a toll on your overall wellbeing. It’s best to cut it lose as soon as possible otherwise, it’ll just continue on to your married life, which many consider is the point of no return.


5. You just can’t be yourself around her
   Your partner should be the person with whom you can be your most authentic self. They should be the one whom you can bare your flaws and imperfections with but love you nonetheless.
   
   If being with your partner forces you to put up a front in order to please her, it’s a clear indicator that she doesn’t accept you for who you really are. There are plenty of other beautiful women out there who will love you for you and not force you to fit the mold of their ideal guy. Go look for that kind of girl and don’t settle for anything less.

We’d be the first to admit, there’s no such thing as a pretty breakup. Breakups are almost always ugly, messy and brutal. And you add to the equation the fact that finding love after heartbreak is never going to be easy, a lot of people settle for unhappy relationships as a result.

This kind of mindset, however, will only lead you to waste precious time with someone who will just make your life miserable when you could be happy with someone else if you only have the courage to let go.

At the end of the day, it’s your wellbeing that should always come first. You should learn how to love yourself first and part of that is learning to let go of the things that aren’t making you happy.
