Sometimes we stay in a relationship for so long that we become comfortable. If we are unhappy in our relationship then we dismiss it that we are just being silly or delusional. You aren’t happy, but you cannot figure out why you aren’t happy. You are pulled in two directions because you want to get out of the relationship, but you don’t at the same time. How can you tell when you are really ready to get out? There are some questions you can ask yourself to see if you just have a case of the blahs, or if you are really ready to move on.
Are you having a hard time enjoying yourself and being comfortable around your significant other? This is one of the signs that you might be over your relationship. Sometimes people just grow apart over time through no fault of their own. It can be a hard pill to swallow so a lot of people remain in the relationship to save face, and to try to hold on to what they used to have. Neither partner is willing to admit defeat and call it quits.
Don’t keep it in, if it is something you are feeling then you need to talk to your partner about it. If you are both unhappy and just ignore it then the hole will only grow larger. Sometimes you may need to spend some time apart to see if you really want that, or you are just having a rough period. Sometimes when you separate for a bit you realize that you truly care about each other and want to make it work. If you are happier apart then you have your answer. You can move on knowing that you tried to make it work and figure out what you wanted and you were better off apart.
