The most prominent signs of a toxic marital relationship

 

A toxic relationship is one in which partners are not supportive of each other. Instead, one partner may try to demolish the other's hopes, due to the feeling of competition rather than support.

Lack of respect, hatred, and an inability to work together leads to constant struggles in toxic relationships.

 

Here are the main signs of a toxic marriage:

1. Always apologise for the little things you said or did

This type of overreaction can lead to emotional drain and damage your self-esteem.

In healthy relationships, the partner is not unexpectedly upset by simple things.

2- You and your partner go through long periods of angry silence

True openness and trust are key to a healthy relationship, so if you don't communicate with your partner, you're making room for other negative emotions like resentment and anger.

You won't find solutions to your problems without being open about how you feel and what's on your mind.

 

3- Your partner is dominant

Controlling behavior can range from forcing your partner to look a certain way, to repeatedly counting every way you helped your partner in order to make them feel guilty, to returning the favor later.

Some specialists assert that the need for control comes from fear of the unknown, in which case it is recommended that you talk to your partner about the worst-case scenario you fear, and consider how realistic it is.

You can do this through a conversation where both of you are strict and honest about what you want and need from each other.

 

4. You constantly avoid important emotional issues

It's not okay to keep your feelings in bottles in marital relationships, as resentment and emotional isolation destroy emotional intimacy.

For example, if your partner says he doesn't accept you attacking him when you're angry in front of your family, let him express his feelings, rather than undermine his fears, while trying to find a solution that makes both of you happy.

 

5-One or both of you keep secrets

Toxicity can stem from keeping secrets that would hurt your partner if they knew.

While it is fine for each partner to claim their space and maintain their personal life, it is not healthy to engage in activities in which you may feel guilty about participating.

 

6- You feel insecure

The most powerful of marriages have quarrels and estrangements from time to time, because the two of you are imperfect people navigating an imperfect world.

But in the midst of frustration there is the inner knowledge that feelings will subside and that forgiveness will eventually shine.

Fear of repeated threats of abandonment or infidelity may cause you to become nervous and trembling over misunderstandings because of your fear of repeated threats of abandonment or infidelity.

Psychiatrists stress that it is necessary to have a feeling of deep and secure love for your partner and that being with him makes a huge positive difference for you and him.
