Choosing the person you want to be in a relationship with is entirely up to an individual. However, one can find themselves in a toxic relationship. This is a relationship where you do things to please your partner at the expense of your own principles. Here are signs that show your partner doesn't bring out the best in you.
1. He/she doesn't motivate you
Your partner should always encourage you to be at your best all the time. They ensure that they motivate and encourage you every time you feel like quitting. If you feel they do not help lift up your spirits every time you have had a setback it’s because they do not bring out the best in you.
2. Everyone around you is worried
People that care about you friends and family will always notice when something is wrong. When the people close to you start complaining that you have changed maybe it’s time to look into your relationship. When someone is in love they might not notice they are changing but people close to you will so pay close attention to what they say.
3. If it feels sad and sadder over time
Some partners will make you feel about yourself and also your life by constantly making negative comments. Every time you feel that your happiness relies on your partner then that is a sigh they are not bringing out the best in you. If you are always sad in a relationship then that is not the right person for you.
4. The affair seems to take too much of your time
This is when you are always late to work, you no longer meet your work deadlines and you at times miss important events. You do not do the things you loved because of chores like laundry and cooking. When your partner wants the best of you then they should let you concentrate on what is best for you.
