Warning Signs Of A Toxic Relationship
You should keep in mind that your perspective and point of view can be wrong. Experiencing these situations in a relationship doesn't prove that your partner is toxic. These problems could prove you to be the toxic one. At least you have the power to change yourself.
Extreme jealousy can be a good indicator of a bad relationship. If it's provoked legitimately, then try to work things out. If it's out of nowhere, then you might have a serious issue. People with very low self-esteem tend to thrive on jealousy. They can't control their emotions. Jealousy isn't the root of the situation.
The real culprit is low self-esteem.
Uncontrollable rage in your partner is another major sign. If heated fights continually break out, then it can make your whole life become seemingly meaningless. Regardless of who causes it both of you need to deal with each other like adults.
How To Handle Yourself
Get over the anger and fussing. If you are driving your partner crazy, then they need to deal with it. If being with them is like walking on eggshells, then you need to address it.
Not doing anything about these dramatic reactions will only lead to the destruction of what little love you end up with. You both may feel like everyone is against you, but don't be against each other. Toxic people aren't born bitter.
They are created.
Being under the influence of a manipulative person can transfer to your personality. You may find yourself sneaking around on your partner's texts and social media. Arguments may escalate into physical harm. Throwing plates and furniture might become commonplace in your daily interactions.
Don't let a sweet thing turn sour. Know when to walk away and cool off. Do some research on stopping an argument from escalating. If you really love your partner, then make an effort to be the best you can be for them.
