They can make your entire life worse. Everything from your friendships to your career can suffer if you’re in a toxic relationship.

Knowing the signs of one is a very powerful way you can take back control and prevent everything from going downhill.

Here are signs of a bad relationship to keep a lookout for:-

[]Nobody wants to be with someone who’s bad for them. We all want that incredible, fun love story we see all over social media. While those may not be completely accurate, they’re great goals to shoot for.

Wanting a healthy relationship is important. Recognizing that you’re not in one is also very valuable. If you truly want to know if your relationship is bad and unhealthy for both of you, here are the glaring signs of a bad relationship to watch out for.

LACK OF COMMUNICATION
When you don’t talk to each other or worse, you CAN’T talk to each other, something is very, very wrong. In order for a relationship to be healthy, you have to be able to discuss everything. If you can’t even tell your partner when you’re upset, it’s not a good relationship.

JOKES BECOMES INSULTS
It’s perfectly fine to tease and joke around with your significant other. It becomes a problem when those “jokes” are actually insulting and hurtful. You have to know what will cause your significant other pain.

And on the flip side, if they’re continuously insulting you and it’s actually making you upset, then you have to say something. If you can’t and this is a serious problem, it’s a sign of a bad relationship.

BELITTLING EACH OTHER IN FRONT OF OTHERS
This can be difficult to determine simply because some people have a hard time figuring out where the line is between teasing and belittling. But if it’s blatant, then you have an awful relationship. Putting each other down always should never be tolerated and this is an indication of a bad relationship.

CONTINUOUS ARGUMENTS WITH NO RESOLUTION
Fighting in relationships is perfectly fine. Obviously, if you’re fighting all the time, that’s not good. But arguing and then never actually talking about it is a major issue. You can’t bottle up those feelings. If you do, they’ll explode in the worst ways.

ALWAYS HAVING MAKE-UP SEX INSTEAD OF TALKING
If your arguments all end in the bedroom, you have an unhealthy relationship. It’s okay if you talk it out and make up BEFORE the sex, but using sex as a means to solve your problems is toxic and very unhealthy.

YOUR FRIENDS HAVE TOLD YOU TO BACK OUT PREVIOUSLY
They know you best and they can tell when your behavior takes a dive for the worse. You really have to listen to them. It’s hard and you may be very defensive at first, but they care about you. Telling you the relationship is bad means it truly is.

YOUR FAMILY DOESN’T LIKE HIM
Most of your family members can tell if someone is treating you right just by how you act. If they have issues with the guy, it’s for a reason. Pay attention to your family and even ask them what they think. Some may not even be shy about telling you how they feel.

HIS FAMILY DOESN’T LIKE YOU
Normally with bad relationships, both people are to blame. This may be evident with the way their family treats you. You might think you’re being great to them but if their family is showing you otherwise, it’s time to do some self-reflecting.

PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE NOTES
When your partner is leaving you notes all about the stuff they’re mad at you for, it’s not healthy. This is a very passive aggressive way of going about problem solving. When you can’t talk or act without getting misunderstood, the relationship is unhealthy.

YOU DON’T PRIORITIZE EACH OTHER
If you’re in a relationship, your partner should be your priority. Of course you have other things to worry about, but they should still be toward the top of the list. If you’re both ignoring each other and not respecting that prioritization, things will never be good for you.

YOU HARDLY DO NICE THINGS FOR ONE ANOTHER
In a healthy relationship, your goal is to always make each other happy. When you stop doing those things, something is wrong. You can’t be with someone if you don’t even want to do nice things for them.

YOU DON’T APPRECIATE EACH OTHER
When you actually do stuff that’s sweet and kind, neither of you appreciates when the other person does it. When you come to expect nice things and never acknowledge that they’re done, you’re not grateful. Being ungrateful is not healthy and is a sign that your partner is not into you.

YOU FEEL RELIEVED WHEN YOU ARE ALONE
Now, a lot of people enjoy their alone time. But when you were just with your partner and are relieved when they finally leave, there’s an issue.

You should want to be around your significant other. Not wanting them around means you don’t like their company. If you don’t like their company, then why are you even together?

YOU SOMETIMES WISH YOU WEREN’T TOGETHER.
Even if you’re arguing, you should never feel like this in a healthy relationship. If you do, it’s one of the many signs of a bad relationship and you probably aren’t happy. When you feel this way more often than not, it’s a sign of trouble.

YOU’RE ALWAYS UNHAPPY
This should just be obvious, but some people need the reminder. If you’re not happy with your significant other, you shouldn’t be together. Forget about how long you’ve been with them or what anyone else would think if you split. Your happiness is of the utmost importance.

I hope this article help save those in a hurting relationship.

Marriage Series 7: What Does The Bible Say About Divorce and Remarriage?

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT DIVORCE AND REMARRIAGE? First of all, no matter what view one takes on the issue of divorce, it is important to remember Malachi 2:16, “I hate divorce, says the LORD God of Israel.” According to the Bible, marriage is a lifetime commitment. “So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate” (Matthew 19:6). God realizes, though, that, since marriages involve two sinful human beings, divorces are going to occur. In the Old Testament, He laid down some laws in order to protect the rights of divorcées, especially women ( Deuteronomy 24:1–4).  Jesus pointed out that these laws were given because of the hardness of people’s hearts, not because such laws were God’s desire (Matthew 19:8). The controversy over whether divorce and remarriage is allowed according to the Bible revolves primarily around Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:32 and 19:9 . The phrase “ except for marital unfaithfulness” is the only thing in Script...
