When should a person walk out of a relationship?

[Anonymous]

I've thought and thought of when it's ok for a person to leave a relationship. Most times people would stay in toxic relationship because of love or because they don't want the other person to feel abandoned. Sometimes if you don't stay they say you aren't fighting for the relationship. What should one do?

As long as you can look in the mirror in honesty and comfortable smile and sigh at what you see then I suppose that is good enough. One can only do what one perceives to be best after having thought through all the evidences. You seem to be both thoughtful and emotionally connected in life so I am confident in your choice. Simply, be acutely aware in all things.

I walked because she was abusive and violent.


I stayed as I was frightened of her sad as that sounds she bloody terrified me, I also didn’t want to be alone (I was in a really bad place and she took advantage of that)


I put up with her for over a year till one day I just had enough and I thought f**k you and I just stopped talking to her and that was it. She didn’t like it as narcissists don’t and she’s been harassing me to this day 8 months on.

I'm so sorry about that. You are so strong for going through that.

a lot of the tie people stay in a relationship because they are scared to make a decision for themselves,

Only when it's not working fine. Such as no trust, love and care. These three things are rare but easy if you both committed

Any type of abuse.
