Hey there, it’s Tina Fey here.
Poisonous relationships. We all had them, and none of us want. But believe me or not, they can teach us some valuable lessons of life.
Psychology tells us that even the most difficult attempts can lead to personal growth. And a poisonous relationship, well, it is often an self star.
In this article, I am going to share eight basic lessons that we can all learn from these hard times in our love life.
Catch because this is deeply dive into a relationship in the world – good, bad and sincere ugly.
As the founder of love connection blog and for all your things, I am with you every step. Let’s start …
1) Understand the self-esteem
Toxic relations can sometimes interrogate our value. But here’s what. They should not.
Our self-esteem should never be associated with another person’s behavior. Just because someone is treating you badly doesn’t mean you are worth respecting and lovely.
In case of enduring toxic relations, we often learn to recognize the signs of disrespect and misuse. It is a tough lesson, but eventually we have the value of our value to understand us.
We realize that we deserve more than toxic relationships offered. We learn to put boundaries and stand for ourselves.
And guess what? Recognition of your value has crooked power. This strengthens your trust, improves your decision-making skills and even strengthens your other relationship.
Although poisonous relationships can be a painful experience, it also enables your self-esteem. Take this lesson with you and remember. You are more than enough.
2) the power of flexibility
You know, because I sailed my output in a particularly unpleasant relationship I found that I was thinking about the queen of the conversation. He once said: “Take your wounds in wisdom.”
Toxic relationships can indeed push us through the wrapping. They check our endurance, challenging our self-esteem, and sometimes we even spoil our faith in love.
But you know what? They also teach us flexibility.
Is our ability to jump from adversity. And the boy can be a toxic relationship adversity.
But the remarkable about human beings is that we are going to grow. We treat, we grow and we are stronger out on the other side.
We learn to adapt, persist and recover even the deepest emotional wounds.
If you have survived a poisonous relationship, give you a piece on the back. You have shown an incredible amount of flexibility.
3) Recognize code dependence
One thing that poisonous relationships often reveal, Cozakh is the presence of dynamics.
Now this is something I spacious in my book, breaking the app. How to overcome code dependence into your relationship?
Codadens is a behavioral condition in a relationship where one person allows another person’s dependence, mental health, immobility, irresponsibility or inferiority.
It’s an unhealthy app where you find your self-esteem and mental health is associated with another person.
Jumping through poisonous relationships often shines light on this unhealthy dynamics.
We realize that we are very much giving us a lot to sacrifice our happiness and ignoring our needs for another person.
But the silver lining here. We learn to recognize code dependence.
We learn to see when we give a lot and get too little. We learn to prioritize our mental health and create healthier patterns in our relationship.
If you are interested in learning more about code dependence and how to get rid of it, check out my book.
4) Including loneliness
Now, here comes a lesson that can be voiced. Being in a toxic relationship can actually teach us to appreciate being alone.
Yes you have heard that right. Loneliness.
When we are stuck in a poisonous relationship, we are often so exhausted with drama and negativity that we forget what feels on your own.
We forget the peace that comes to loneliness, freedom to think, without fear of judgment or conflict.
But once we leave poisoning, we regain the joy of being alone.
And this is not only about being physically single. It’s also about emotional independence.
It’s about learning happiness in us, not to rely on someone else to make us happy.
Although it may seem strange, the poisonous relationship can actually teach us the cost of loneliness.
It reminds us that sometimes being alone can be a whole lot better than being with the wrong person.
5) Learn to listen to your intuition
This class is my personal favorite. One of the most valuable things in toxic relationship can teach us the need for our intuition trust.
Our intestinal feelings, those small whispers on the back of our mind, they are usually on the spot. But too often, we ignore them.
We behave badly, we explain red flags, everyone, because we want to believe in the potential of the relationship.
I’ve been there trying to convince myself that everything will improve that I’m just overshadowing.
But let me say something. Your intuition is your best guide. It knows when something is not right.
Once we run away from a poisonous relationship, we can look back and see all the moments where our intuition tried to warn us. And we learn to trust it more in the future.
So remember if something feels in your relationship, don’t ignore it. Trust your intestine. It usually tries to protect you.
6) accepting your own shortcomings
Ok this can be a hard pill to swallow.
Poisonous relationships are not only about the mistakes and flaws of the other person. They are also a mirror that can reflect our own shortcomings.
No one is perfect. We all have our weaknesses, our blind spots. And sometimes poisonous relationships can bring them to the surface. It can show us where we need to grow and change.
Maybe we have been too passive, which will allow others to walk on us. Or maybe we are too addicted to expect our partner to be invalid inside us.
Whatever, recognizing and accepting our own shortcomings is an important step towards personal growth.
We do not remain about accusing us of poisoning. We are talking about our actions and choices to take responsibility, and learn to become a better way for ourselves.
So yes, it’s raw. It is sincere. But it is one of the most powerful lessons in life we can learn from the poisonous relationship.
7) The need for healthy communication
Once I read the Quote of George Bernard Show, which was really stuck with me. He said: “The only biggest problem in communication is the illusion that happened.”
Communication in toxic relations is often destroyed. We find yourself in endless arguments without a solution, or we avoid talking about problems at all. It’s exhausting and frustrating.
But here’s the lesson. It attaches importance to healthy communication.
With my experience I learned that simple, open and sincere communication is the spine of any successful relationship.
It’s about expressing your needs and feelings without fear. It’s about listening to compassion and understanding.
And most importantly, we are talking about resolving conflicts in respect and constructive ways.
If you were in a poisonous relationship where communication was a constant struggle, remember this lesson.
8) Leaving is not always a loss
Here is the raw truth. Sometimes, leaving toxic relationship is the best thing you can do for yourself.
We often keep poisonous relationships because we are afraid of change, fearing alone or just because we still love man in spite of their toxicity.
But it is not fair to stay in fear or love.
Leaving may feel loss. And yes, it can be involved in grief and pain. But it is also an act of self-esteem and self-esteem.
It’s about realizing that you are better to deserve and make a decision.
If you are currently wrestling, stay or leave, remember this. Sometimes, what the end feels is actually a new beginning.
It is an opportunity for you to find happiness and peace outside the toxic relationships.
