Deciding to Break Up
- He cancels or forgets dates.
- She sends "mixed signals" -- one minute you're great the next
you're ignored.
- One of you feels deprived and unfulfilled or complains of not getting
enough attention.
- You wait by the phone or feel you are wasting your time
"waiting" for the other to come around.
You know you're at a red light and it's time to put on the brakes when:
- You're experiencing more pain than pleasure.
- You're being mentally, physically, or sexually abused.
- She betrays you or cheats on you.
- You feel used, abused, or foolish.
- He keeps secrets (like not revealing a home number or never inviting you
over).
- She constantly blames, criticizes, or denigrates others (parents,
friends, co-workers).
- Either of you has a lot of unresolved anger toward the same or
opposite sex.
- There is a clear reluctance to commit (indicated by statements like
"Marriage is a disaster" or "I'll never settle down").
- He is pushy, controlling, or obsessed with sex.
- Friends warn you with evidence you don't want to believe (unlike you,
they're not wearing "love blinders").
- His life is dangerous (involves guns, drugs, illegal acts).
