Hello @GirlsAskGuys,
I am glad to write this take after a long time because I got inspiration from one of my school friend. Letting go of a bad relationship can be complicated. đź‘«
In initial stage some people face problem in accepting that their relationship is over though they know that it's over.
Later on the person becomes angry on self, universe, God, ex-partner. Depression, like anger, also surfaces in many different forms, for example feeling tired all the time, not wanting to do anything but lay in bed, feeling disconnected from people even when you’re with them, being on the verge of tears most of the time, trouble sleeping or sleeping too much, loss of appetite or overeating. Last but not the least HOPELESSNESS.
Bad relationships don’t turn good with greater commitment. If you are dating and it is bad, getting married will make it worse much worse.
People stay in bad relationships because they fear that they are not really an okay person or they’re afraid of being alone. Some believe that a difficult relationship represents a chance to grow.
Good Enough Relationship
I encourage couples to strive for the “good enough” relationship. What it means? In a good enough relationship, people have high expectations for how they’re treated.
They expect to be treated with kindness, love, affection, and respect. They do not tolerate emotional or physical abuse. They expect their partner to be loyal.
This does not mean they expect their relationship to be free of conflict. Even happily married couples argue. Conflict is healthy because it leads to greater understanding.
Solutions :
Emotional wounds are beyond “sadness”. Honer your pain; don’t run from it. Put time aside to reflect, and give yourself permission to grieve.
Being alone is part of healing, but long periods of isolation are unhealthy. It’s important to take a break from your pain, and engage in other activities.
MOVE ON :
Some people allow suffering to define them, shape them and, ultimately, rob of them of living. Be smart to let them go.
Thanks G@G community for reading my take. I had written this take after a long time probably after a year on G@G after leaving Editorial status. Suggestions are welcomed wholeheartedly. Apologies for any mistakes.
