Deciding to Break Up
In at least one relationship you'll have in your life, inevitably the day
will come when you ask yourself, "Is this working?" or "How long
should I keep at this before it's really over?" or "When's the right
time to break this off?"
Only you can determine your limits of tolerance for working on a
relationship. Some people look for instant gratification, and as soon as their
needs aren't being met, they're out the door. Others hang on forever, hoping and
praying things will get better. Neither approach is ideal, but it helps to know
where you and your partner fit along this continuum.
Think of dating as a long road punctuated by traffic lights. Red lights
signal danger, yellow lights require caution, and green lights mean keep going
(but proceed cautiously since you never know when a car might run a red light!).
