LIVING IN FEARS IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP?

Hey lovelies ❤️
It's your favorite girl @debbie-ese 😍
Welcome to my blog 🤗

In a healthy relationship, the partners should be able to express themselves freely without any form of tension. Our partner is meant to be our go-to person and confidant that we should be open to about anything whatsoever. However, when it gets to the point that you have to be extremely careful about your choice of words or the topic you discuss, then it is important to review the situation.

It is not difficult to get along with your partner in a healthy relationship. You can tell when they are in a happy mood, stressed or unhappy. You're not scared to communicate your intentions and your partner isn't scared to do the same. Whereas, an unhealthy relationship is characterized by lack of clear communication. You may have to be tactical about your communication, that is, you'd have to observe when your partner is in a happy mood before you raise certain issues to avoid being ignored and offending him or her.

If you feel like you can not discuss certain issues with your partner because of the fear of their reactions or you're constantly extremely careful about what you say and how you say it in order not to piss them off then you are in an unhealthy relationship which demands urgent attention. Unhealthy relationship often leads to angry outbursts or physical altercations if nit efficiently managed.

In a relationship such as this, a partner is at the mercy of the other. One partner is always a victim that have to cope with the excess of the other such as a shift in mood from happy to angry within a twinkle of an eye. Sometimes the change in mood can last for days, weeks or months, depending on the severity of the issue. To be able to live with such partner, the other have to be extremely careful in other to maintain the good mood. This is a very wicked form of control that can mess with a person's overall mental health.

Do you know that sometimes these signs of emotional torture in a relationship can be hidden and not easily recognised by the victim unless a third-party calls your attention to it. However, there are some subtle signs that you can observe that one partner is careful around the other in a bid not to offend them. Some of the signs may include constant insults and assaults becoming a norm in the relationship, arguments that are way overboard, one partner is always at alert around the other so as to not do or say anything to offend the other and so on.

It is important to always put your mental health first in all you do and not what people will say. It is key to spend some moments to think about your life and find out what you want for yourself. You may have spend a good part of your life trying to please the other person, living in fear of stepping on their toes, thereby losing yourself in the process. It might be hard to leave the relationship but it may be necessary if you have tried to communicate with them and they are not remorseful of their actions. You may seek the services of a therapist to help you heal from the pain the months or years of living in fears have caused in your life. It may also be helpful to speak with trusted family or friends.
