Responding To Netizens Comment

Netizen: I just love your posts on Are You Being Abused? I have a question though ... when is the best time to end a relationship?

Response: There is no magic formula for a successful BF/GF or parent/children relationship. We give second chances (sometimes 6 to 10 times more) but when all indications point to the fact that it is not working and you are being abused, some relationships are not worth saving.

If you tried every other option to give the relationship a second breath of life, but the other party is not ready and prepared to make any adjustment or maybe change for the better, the time has come to bail out and quit.

If the person has no intention to modify his old abusive habits walking away from the relationship is a welcome option and may be the best alternative to protect your overall welfare and state of health.

One should remember that all relationships are unique and different from each other.  When you have a bad hair day ... emotions are running high and you can be petulant, resentful, and testy. And it can be denied that the aforementioned feelings can inundate and spill over .... even in relationships that have stood the test of time.

When abuse is present and you became a willing doormat and a fall guy for your partner it is imperative to remind yourself that you deserve better - a marriage where you feel safe, happy, and respected.

If you suspect that you might be involved in an unhealthy relationship, spend some time considering the impact it has on your life, whether these issues can be fixed, and whether it might be time to end the relationship.
