Sequel to my post on “When your relationship is not working”, I have written this post to assist you in walking out of a relationship that is destroying you.
Be sure of your decision: A mole hill is very different from a mountain and sometimes we tend to read unnecessary meaning into a tiny challenge that’s plaguing our relationship. You need to be sure that your relationship is broken beyond repairs before you quit. You need to ascertain the fact that if you leave, nothing will ever give you a reason to come back. You need to be convicted and most importantly, very sure of your decision. This you do by reviewing circumstances and issues then seriously talking to God while allowing Him to direct you.
Inform your partner: There’s nothing worse that breaking up with someone without an official conversation in person. Don’t just start acting like he/she doesn’t exist or make a decision to stop answering their calls/text…that’s childish, immature and doesn’t paint a good picture of you. Politely and carefully explain the situation to your partner. You can listen to whatever explanation they have to give but at this point, you must ensure that nothing they say or do will change your mind. Hence the importance of point 1. You can meet them in the open should in case they react violently or become abusive.
Give yourself and your ex enough time, space so that the wounds can heal: The mistake a lot of people make is trying to be friends with someone they just broke up with. Ideally, this should not be the case because it’s like adding salt to injury…it only worsens the situation and makes it difficult for both parties to move on successfully. In light of this, don’t try to start instant friendship but give yourself time to heal. Spend this time praying, developing yourself and reconnecting with friends.
