Signs That Can Help You Spot You’re In A Wrong Relationship

by Christopher Paul · October 13, 2019

Most adults get into a relationship as soon as they hit 18. However, not all relationships will be successful. Sometimes people date for a really long time and then break up. Sometimes they are together for weeks only and then part ways. But every second you’re in a relationship with the wrong person, you could possibly be meeting your soul mate.

It is important to know these markers that will help you know if the person you’re dating is even right for you. Dating someone who isn’t compatible with you only causes problems and eventually a messy breakup. So save yourself some trouble and time by reading these markers of dating the wrong person.

1They never have time for you

There are many people who get into a relationship just to satisfy their sexual needs. This is actually unfair to the other partner. A relationship isn’t just about sexual activities. There is much more to it. If your partner always prioritizes work and never has time for you, then break up. Being in a relationship means you have someone to spend your free time with. Don’t accommodate someone who doesn’t have time for you.

2They never leave you alone

This only applies when one partner does this. If both want to spend all their time together then that’s perfectly fine. However, if one partner loves their personal space and the other just wants to spend all their time with them, then that personal space is encroached upon. For instance, you may be doing some activities to unburden and relax. If your partner starts joining you for that against your wishes, it is encroaching upon your personal space.

3Why is personal space important?

Personal space is important to every single person in the world. We all have day jobs that are hectic. When we get home, we like to do certain things and unwind. Yes, spending time with your partner is a part of that, but sometimes, everyone needs a little time to themselves. Without this time for relaxing and inward thinking, mental peace might be at risk.

4This is a form of psychological abuse

Believe it or not, this forced spending time together is actually a form of psychological abuse. You need your time alone but your partner joins you for everything. You can’t tell them to leave you alone because you think that is rude. At first you will be flattered that they are willing to do things you like but eventually, you will feel choked by all the love and togetherness. Everyone needs some freedom.

5A simple way to avoid this

Yes, there is a pretty simple way to avoid this. When you first meet someone, notice the way they talk about themselves. See if they have any hobbies or any passions they like to follow. People who have their own hobbies will take time to pursue them and you can pursue your own hobbies and everyone has their personal space.
