"You might be enduring unhealthy behaviours because you're scared of what life would look like without them, she says. Signs your relationship might have become unhealthy include a lack of trust, consistent disrespect and regular arguments, whether they're big or small."
"Meanwhile, disrespect could be verbal put-downs that are positioned as banter or jokes or, at the extreme end, abusive behaviour. More subtle signs might be a lack of desire to do things together and feeling drained after interacting with your partner."
"If you feel the relationship has reached the end of the road, it's a bad idea to call it quits in the heat of an argument. It's best to initiate a breakup when you feel calm, allowing for a constructive conversation, says Mansfield."
"An easy first step is identifying your motivation for giving up, which could be becoming more healthy, saving money or being more present for your loved ones, says McKay. Owning your 'why' can give you strength when you have doubts, and want to pour a drink."
