if you have done all you can in a relationship and it still not progressing what should you do?

Answer 1

first be absolutely sure you have done absolutely EVERYTHING you possibly could. Then... you can walk away with a clear head. Your heart may leave a few crumbs behind, but if your best isn't good enough for him, then let's see how good you being gone will be for him. He'll go crazy, but by that point it won't even matter to you.

I was in your shoes. I knew it was time for me to skidaddle when I felt a release and a calm spirit come over me after talking until I was blue in the face. I left the relationship and I didn't look back, not even once. I just didn't care anymore, I had tried everything and nothing got better. I knew I deserved better so I just let it go. I will never leave a relationship again until I feel that same relaese I felt 4 years ago. You'll see what I mean. Even him chasing me down, calling all of my friends etc. that only hit a small spot on my ego, but didn't change my mind or even once made me reconsider and I didn't hate the guy, I was just completely burned out, exhasuted, done with the relationship and happy about moving on. It's like a weight lifted off of my shoulders. You'll see what I mean once you get to that point. You sound like a good person that will be greatly missed. He better staighten up!

Answer 2

If you can honestly say that you have tried everything and it still isn't getting better, it is time for you to take a good look at the relationship and ask yourself a few questions. Can you be happy in the relationship the way it is right now? Can you see yourself with this person a year from now or 5 yrs from now? And most importantly, are you happy? If no is the answer to any of these questions then it is time to move on. You have tried everything you know to do so now the decision is yours.

Answer 3

If you are married and asking this question, then go to counseling to see if the marriage can be worked out. A professional would be the one as a third party to discuss open minded what the problem seems to be. Now if your not married then, sit if the two of you can sit down to discuss what has gone wrong in the relationship if he says he wants out, then you need to move on with your life. Yea, it'll hurt, but you'll learn a valuable lesson and will be able to grow from it. Keep a positive attitude.
Good Luck.

Answer 4

Don't waste anymore time in an unhappy relationship. If you can go out and make it on your own then do it. It is like a breath of fresh air to get out of the hole you are barried in. Being self sufficient and knowing that you are single again will put you in a good frame of mind. You will be wondering what took you so long and why didn't you leave sooner. Don't grow old with worry and lose years you can't get back. Be happy...Be free!!!

Answer 5

If you have not gone to a marriage counceler yet, try that. It is not just for married couples. If you have and neither one of you can come to an agreement as to how the relationship should progress, then yes, DROP THEM. They are not wanting the commitment.

Answer 6

Progress without them, life is to short

Answer 7

I think that if its not progressing to where you need it to you may have to consider leaving that situation. The last thing you want to do is push someone that doesnt want to progress where you want it to.

Answer 8

it takes always 2 to work on an relationship..if only 1 works on it and that also really hard and the partner doesnt see it or cares about it then no chancer at all that will work.

Answer 9

Depends what you mean by "progressing".... If you mean sexually, you should probably talk to your partner and figure out what they want. If you mean romantic/spiritual involvement, maybe you just aren't meant for each other.

Answer 10

I think you know this answer.

If you've tried and done all you can with no improvement or result... then I'm afraid its time to throw in the towel.
