I have been on this forum long enough to fairly conclude that a lot of us dont know when it is time to quit.  Yea, they say winners dont quit and quitters dont win.  But truth be told, there are times when it is better to quit.  It could be an intimate relationship gone wary, a friendship gone sour, or even a business-based relationship.  Now, what are the signs, the red signs that tell us the time is up?......When should one quit and how can one know it is time to quit?............

Relationship......................


It's time to leave when:

-You think of that person and you feel more pain than joy.
-You prefer seeing your friends to seeing your partner.
-You’ve stopped touching each other.
-You’re doing all the giving (or all the getting)
-You compare them with other men or women.
-You're no longer getting what you want or need from the relationship.
-You can no longer communicate with your partner.
-When you keep justifying his/her actions to yourself.
- When he/she is causing you emotional/physical/verbal hurt.
-When the same situation/issue recurs even though you tried addressing it.
-When he/she puts little to no effort in the relationship.
-When your fundamental values and beliefs are different.
-When the relationship is preventing either of you from growing as individuals.
-When you stay on, expecting things to get better.
-When either of you no longer feels the same way about each other.

Just how do you know when its over? No one enters a romantic relationship anticipating a break up, but it can happen.
Breaking someone you deeply care can mean a bitter fall from the heights of joy to the depths of rejection.
Dreams can turn into nightmares and desires down into depression.
Well if the partnership sees you reaching more often to tissue box than to each other, then you know its high time to cut your 
way or in not so drastic manner..

.....Be realistic. If your being used, abused, cheated or lied to, its time to get out.

.....Think about the future. If your partner is possessive, jealous, emotionally disturb,consider relations ahead.

.....Are you enjoying each others company? whenever you part company. If its the latter you better think its you talk or walk.

......Does he promised to call and then forget? does he forget your dates or anniversary? Is he terminally late? Be all the sort of alibis and explaination?

......Do you feel accepted and appreciated? if not then its time to move out.



.....No more romantic feeling. him anymore. When you feel stress out and drained after being with him, when you try to avoid him. And are tempted to seek out dating other man.

.....Are you constantly tormented? Its over when you can't remember when was the last time you spent 24 hours without having a fight, and when he keeps telling you that you are you're a bad girlfriend or wife.


WELL...................

Ask yourself why you still in that relationship. Are you staying with him because you love him and don't want to loss him? or because you want to be with him no matter what the situation maybe. You gotta' do what's right for you, even if that means hurting and losing him. It will be good for both of you in the long run.
