At what point should you consider ending a relationship with someone?

@pearl222 I met a very beautiful girl at a Parents Without Partners meeting when I was about 30. She seemed perfect, UNTIL she got drunk on a date with me. That happened several times, and she ended up crying, about how tough live is. I could not do that for very long, and finally gave her an ultimatum, get into a AA program, or we cannot continue.

She would not, and got drunk on our next date, and that was it... A long time later, she called me in the middle of the night from Florida. I was in Ohio. She had gotten into an accident, drunk driving and nearly killed her daughter, who was then 12 years old. She was THEN in an AA Program. Too late.

[Pearl222]

Omg! That’s horrible that it took the near death of her daughter for her to reform. It’s sad actually, but you dodged a bullet.

[Bricealan]

@pearl222 Yes, and what a terrible waste for this pretty woman, sadly happens to many people

[slatyb]

There is no "point"... If you don´t want to continue seeing them, then end it. That´s all the reason you need.

[jazzy34]

According to a Google search:

"You should consider ending a relationship if there is a lack of emotional and physical safety, persistent lack of respect or contempt, and broken trust. Other signs include feeling drained, a consistent communication breakdown, differing life goals, and a lack of effort or emotional connection from either partner. "

AI is smarter than the average human sadly. Google gave a good answer.

[CindyRuns]

I've tended to end them when I don't see them becoming a long term one !!!

I'm here to sprinkle a little magic into your love life! 😉 If you're feeling more ghosted than greeted, or if those red flags are waving like it's a parade day, it might be time to rethink things. When the butterflies in your stomach turn into a swarm of bees, or trust feels like a thing of the past, consider if your happiness is being overshadowed. Remember, you deserve a partner who makes you feel like you're on cloud nine, not just in cloud doubt! 🌤️💔

When you find out they were only with you for your money or sex and not your heart

[DishLady]

As soon as you sense it's not a good fit.

[ohsheeT]

When your not happy and you see nothing change

[fishcake_buttie]

When you don't love them or you don't feel it from them, as that one emotion is the foundation of the coupling. If children are involved then you stick together for them and act like civil adults and split up if that can't be managed and it is harming the children.

When staying starts costing you more than leaving.

If you’re losing your peace, your confidence, or your sense of self just to keep the relationship alive, it’s already fading.

Love should challenge you, not drain you.

When the effort is one sided and the pain becomes the pattern that’s the point you step away.

For me its when i start thinking how life would be better without them in it rather then with them. Serious relationship or just just a friendship. Its selfish to say, but a person has to make me want to stay around... the paradox is; that has to be done effortlessly.

[Tarifa]

Physical abuse. Cheating. Lack of respect.

In a more subtle way, if you don't feel valued as a women. In the end, you are in a relationship because you want to feel good in the company of your partner. Take away respect and value and you have virtually nothing left.

[exitseven]

When you realize that you are not treated the way you deserve to be treated. Maybe you get abused or maybe disrespected or maybe she just does not pay much attention to you or the relationship.

[ArrowheadSW]

If the relationship is no longer fulfilling to you and there isn't much that could make it change for the better.

[MrChinaski]

Every day. Zero-basing has a lot of advantages. You wake up and choose to love them all over again.

[Beckybooboo]

A friend of mine would say, "after she tries to kill you for the THIRD time". 🤣🤣🤣 It's a true story!

[melanieeeB]

When you're treated disrespectfully or when you're no longer happy for whatever reason and can no longer see a future with that person.

[sage2021]

When you've lost that loving feeling for them.
Then, of course cheating, lying, abuse, they just bug you!!

[hafinjun]

" bug" might not be strong enough, lol

[Nikki1989]

The issues that compromise the integrity of the relationship or your personal safety. Those issues, of course, vary from person to person.

[pinkpowder]

When u start having thoughts or indecisiveness of staying with someone you should leave bc if you really loved them and it was meant to be you wouldn’t even dream of leaving them

[captain_voidwalker]

When effort you put in no longer equals effort put out.

[AgentG111]

When you aren't able to get along or have some common ground or anything that either person is okay with.

If the love/like respect/passion understanding/acceptance isn't there it's time to de-ass the place.

[hafinjun]

When you dont communicate, when you dont feel that spark as she enters the room, when sex is a thing of the past when she's at her sister's for days and you didn't notice.

[AngryCarl2]

When you're not into them anymore. Staying in a relationship you're not into is dishonest tbh.

[CallmeTheKnight]

For me it can be when I’m tired of being annoyed, ignored, disrespected, and/or stressed

[SunnyCaliGirl]

Ask yourself is that person helping you continuity grow as a person or Not?

[Clyde_123]

When they abused/cheated on you, when they dont love you anymore

[FreyaRed]

If it feels like a burden it's time to go.

[Anonymous]

I've never been in a relationship, so I don't know.

[Paige90]

When there's no more love or respect

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

My #1 red flag is serial killers.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I got got a graduated system below that but it helps to start with the main incompatibility for me.

[Anonymous]

Emotional cheating , betrayal

[Anonymous]

When the sex dries up, you know it's over.

[dudeinohio]

Abuse or cheating
