Poisonous relationships
“A romantic relationship is not about you or me. It is about us. Without the "us" there is no relationship”, states a quote. Unfortunately, this does not apply to every couple. There are relationships based on rudeness, disrespect and lack of affect. These kinds of relationships are called “toxic relationships”. These kinds of relationships have two advantages, like the wisdom and strength you get after ended a toxic relationship, as well as four disadvantages, such as humiliation, low self-esteem and criticism. There are two main advantages connected with toxic relationships. One advantage of having been involved in a toxic relationship is the wisdom you gain. This is probably the biggest lesson you learn in life, since after breaking up with somebody that would belittle you as a person, you had actually learned about self-appreciation and that you deserve more than that. Another possible advantage could be the fact that you feel strong after having found the way out of a toxic relationship. A lot of courage is needed in order to confront your toxic partner and put an end to the relationship. This is the reason why many people feel strong and prepared to cope with any kind of future relationship. However, toxic relationships imply four main disadvantages. To start with, humiliation is a common situation within a toxic relationship. For example, when a couple goes to a party, one of the partners starts talking about their marital problems in front of others or just mock about the other person clothes. Furthermore, having a low self-esteem is part of this kind of relationship. Sometimes, toxic people can make you feel emotionally and spiritually broken, as if you did not have feelings. Finally, Constant criticism is also an inevitable factor. Everything, from the way you comb your hair to the kind of friends you have, is criticized. In conclusion, being involved in toxic relationships has, to my mind, more disadvantages than advantages. In my view, if people allow them, toxic relationships can be like tornados that suck up all your good spirit; but if you really want to, you can stop being a victim of a toxic relationship. |
