6 Concrete Signs Your Relationship Is Too Broken To Repair

Even though you love your partner, you don’t want to remain in a relationship with them if they aren’t the one for you. You don’t want to prolong your pain by trying to fix something that is too far gone. Here are the signs your relationship is too broken to repair and you’re both better off moving on:

You have lost trust in them, and nothing they do can change that fact.

If your partner has broken your trust so badly that there’s nothing they can say or do in order to make you trust them again, then the relationship might as well be over. You can’t stay with someone you’re always doubting. You don’t want to live a life of paranoia. You deserve someone who you trust has your best interest at heart, who you believe when they speak, who you know would never dare to hurt you.

You keep having the same fights again and again, and aren’t able to resolve the issue.

Arguments are normal in relationships. But you should be hearing each other out and trying to come to a compromise or change behavior so that the problem doesn’t pop up again. If you’re always arguing about the same exact thing every few months, then you have to ask yourself whether it’s worth leaving them over. Because if you’re not fixing it now, it might never be fixed.

You have been in an on-and-off relationship for ages.

You don’t want to break up whenever there’s a minor problem, then get back together the second you start missing each other. Remember, you broke up for a reason. Either fix the problem before trying again, or accept that you are never going to work as a couple and are better off apart.

You end up fighting dirty during every single argument.

Healthy couples will talk through their emotions and learn from the discussion. They will strive to treat each other better day by day. If you’re throwing each other’s mistakes in their face, calling each other names, and making each other feel small on purpose, then you shouldn’t be together. No matter how much you claim to care about each other, you are only going to hurt each other.

You have stopped communicating effectively.

You can’t have a healthy relationship without communication. If talking to your partner feels like pulling teeth, no matter how many times you have tried to get them to open up to you, then it’s never going to work. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to your partner about your feelings, it’s the same deal. You can’t date someone without communicating them them.

You don’t have any desire to work toward rebuilding the relationship.

If you don’t want to fight for this person anymore, then don’t. Let them go. You don’t owe them anything. This doesn’t have to be the relationship you’re in for the rest of your life. Remember, if neither of you want to put in the effort to fix the relationship, then nothing is ever going to change. You’re going to be this miserable forever. Unless you stop the cycle now. Accept that it’s over and say goodbye.
