Do you think on again off again relationships are usually toxic?

Generally, on & off relationships have very poor communication, so nothing is ever truly addressed and resolved. Everyone wants to be heard, yet no one is considerate enough to show a desire to hear and understand the other person. If that pattern is chosen, you'll never see positive results, so you can label it as toxic.

I think they're akin to polyamorous or open relationships. Not necessarily toxic, but the relationship is there just to serve one or both of the people's purposes/needs. That's why it goes off again... the scratch got itched. It could be emotional/attention or sexual. Perhaps just to do shit at a job.

Yeah, they suck

I was in one for 3 years in high school

Seems like it... I've never heard of anything good coming from treating someone's emotional health like a yo-yo.

[Havthrills]

I never had one, but I would think so.
