Sometimes in the thick of a realtionship, its difficult to know if its toxic, even if everyone around can see it. Here are some clues that may signify a toxic relationship.
The Phone. Do you hang-up on eachother all the time? This is not typical of a healthy relationship. Once in a while is one thing, but it should not be a regular thing.
Step2
Breaking Up. Do you find the two of you are always breaking up? On again off again relationships are not a sign of a healthy relationship.
Step3
Lies. Do you find your self lying to this person or that they are always lying to you? This is can only be bad for the relationship.
Step4
Drugs and Alcohol. Do you find yourself always drunk or on drugs with this person? Sometimes couples feed off eachother with negative, self distructive behavior. This is a really bad thing. The person you spend your time with should bring out the best in you, not the worst.
Step5
No Respect. If you find that you do not respect eachother, you will be doing things that are very unhealthy for the relationship.
