is it hard to leave an unhealthy relationship??why??

Answer 1

maybe all you've known... fear of loneliness... fear of rejection... :D

Answer 2

from what I've encountered its hard to leave an unhealthy relationship for a few reasons.
One of those reasons is fear of physical harm to oneself or ones family from the abusive partner.
Another reason is the fear of being alone, and having the thought that one may not find another partner that will provide the securities, financially, emotionally, etc..., that their current partner does, even if they those reasons aren't prevalent, one may believe they are.
A lot of times abusive partners demean their partners so badly that that partner does not believe very highly of them self and oftentimes think that they are getting what they deserve because the abusive partner has convinced them of this.
I do understand that not all unhealthy relationships are abusive relationships. Some people don't even realize that they are in unhealthy relationships.

Answer 3

more times than not the UNhealthy relationship has left you in a situation you feel you are unable to leave IE finances, no where to go and nothing to turn too. That is the whole essence of the UNhealthy relationship, it breaks you down to where you cant trust yourself or others and usually it has chased off most family and friends

Answer 4

Because leaving is a change and changes are a scary thing with many unknowns. People become comfortable in a relationship and then forwhatever reason the relationship breaks up and the people must move on thus upsetting their once comfortable life with its securities to a unknown tomorrow. The relationship was just not meant to be at this point. Good luck in your future endeavors

Answer 5

For me, I had really love the person. And at times when we fight I wanted to leave.

With my earlier boyfriends, when I was inexperience and didn't know the best way to love I made stupid mistakes and hurt the other person. They never told me what was on their mind, so I didn't have a clue of what wrong I was doing. I never cheated though....the left me...without even telling...yes, cheated to, to hurt me.

But my recent love(first true love), sometimes made mistakes and hurt me and he was so scared to let me know how he felt and his true feelings. Some people when they don't know better do stupid things. I encouraged him to express himself, it's okay...just be respectful. It worked. He wanted the relationship to work, and I did too, so we both sacrifice and communicate, though it may hurt, and seek counseling(professional). To our amazement, we found out that some things are just human nature and some are problems from childhood. Everybody has those. At some point it will show, in the beginning of the relationship or later on, or ten years from now. It's a decision that both party have to act upon, if you both want it to work. You cannot be the only one. But, If you feel as if you are loosing yourself, as in the good in your is becoming bad because of a relationship then leave. Love and relationship is to improve both of you, not break you down. Love is also a choice. You cannot be the only one who is willing to work at this. I hope I'm not saying too much. I've lost my fiance in a accident, and I'm glad that we truly loved each other, though we had some rough times.

Answer 6

Yes it is, It took me 16 years to leave. too scared, feel lonely, nowhere to go, dont think you can do it on your own, scared he would come find me, the threats towards family, dont know how to leave. At the time it seemed to hard it was easier to stay. but now im out it was the best thing i ever did and should have done it years ago. Nowadays there is a lot of help out there.

Answer 7

well it all depends on how long you have been with that person and how much you have been through togther and the questions go on. but to me in my OWN OPINION it could be hard especially if you love him or her sometimes it varies but it was hard for me when i left my boyfriend knowing the fact we still stay under the same house hold and have a babygirl on the way but sometimes you jsut gotta let go and if it is meant to be that person will come back to you if not you must be able to do it all on your own.. but i will say follow your heart u can always be friends with that person or try to work things out but communicate first and see what is wrong or going wrong and if you can't fix it break on it for a while or see some one else

Answer 8

No do not have to answer the why.
if it is unhealthy than walk out of it and do not turn back press on forward.

Answer 9

Yes, because it's scary being alone and lonely.
