56) It is always best to focus on the present and the future. What happened in the past cannot be changed and it is best to not remember them. Rather try to get experience from them that where you or your partner went wrong.

57) Minor issues do not mean that your relationship is toxic. Every relationship goes through ups and downs and that is not when it should end. So, try to judge whether your relationship is even toxic or not.

58) Prioritise your partner and prioritize the way your partner treats you even more. Love is not everything that keeps a relationship intact. If your partner is not treating you right, you need to come out of your relationship.

59) Always try to sort out things first. Even if your relationship is a toxic one, try to solve the matter before you think of ending it. But you should keep understanding when you need to stop trying.

60) Your partner is equally trying to sort out the things. You two entered the relationship because you loved each other. So, believe in your partner and hope for the best.

61) Do not think about what is going to happen after you break up. Always remember that if you could live with the toxic relationship, you will live a happier life once you come out of it. You can do better than you think.

62) Start protesting the very moment your partner is doing something toxic. Your protest need not be shouting or fighting all the time. But be firm at your words and never fail to raise your voice.

63) Let your partner know that you cannot be manipulated. A toxic relationship starts when your partner starts manipulating you. Once you realize this, always ensure that your partner is unable to manipulate you.

64) Always make your own decisions. Do not allow anyone to make decisions on your behalf. Remember that it is you who needs to be in a relationship with your partner and not anyone else.

65) Let your partner know that everything has a limit except love. Your partner can love you as much as he or she wants but everything else has a limit. Your partner should understand the true meaning of space and make sure you are able to explain this to your partner.

66) If you think your privacy is harmed, let your partner know. Just because you two love each other doesn’t mean that there is no room for privacy. If your partner does not understand this, take a stern step in explaining it to him or her.

67) Understand what is best for you. If you think that you cannot solve the problems anymore and ending the relationship is the best, then listen to what your hearts suggest to you.

68) Try to accept your flaws in the relationship. Your relationship can be toxic because of your flaws and if your partner tells them to you, do not argue but question yourself.

69) Always be compassionate to the other person. The nature and behavior of a person cannot change immediately. So, understand the situation the person is in once you have pointed out the mistakes.

70) Try to repair and not break. Do not let your relationship break without even trying. A toxic relationship is best when it ends but try to change the toxic relationship into a healthy one.
