  • Lack of support

Your time together has stopped being positive or supportive of your goals.\\u201cHealthy relationships are based on a mutual desire to see the other succeed in all areas of life,\\u201d Caraballo says. But when things turn toxic, every achievement becomes a competition.In other words, you don\\u2019t feel like they have your back.

  • Toxic communication
    Instead of treating each other with kindness, most of your conversations are filled with sarcasm, criticism, or overt hostility. You may even start avoiding talking to each other.
  • Jealousy
    While it\\u2019s normal to experience jealousy from time to time, Caraballo explains it can become an issue if you can\\u2019t get yourself to think or feel positively about their success.

How can we move forward?

Don\\u2019t dwell on the past
Sure, part of repairing the relationship will likely involve addressing past events. But this shouldn\\u2019t be the sole focus of your relationship moving forward. Resist the temptation to constantly refer back to negative scenarios.

Start therapy
An openness to therapy can be a good sign that things are mendable. Actually following through on this can be key to helping the relationship move forward.

While couples counseling is a good starting point, individual therapy can be a helpful addition, Manly says.

View your partner with compassion
When you find yourself wanting to blame your partner for all the problems in the relationship, try taking a step back and looking at the potential motivators behind their behavior, Caraballo says. Have they been going through a hard time at work? Was there some family drama weighing heavily on their mind? These aren\\u2019t excuses for bad behavior, but they can help you come to a better understanding of where your partner\\u2019s coming from.
