ANSWER
Hi Catherine,
Definitely, it’s okay to end a relationship if it doesn’t feel right. Relationships don’t always work out, but your happiness and well-being are important. Here’s why it’s okay:
Your Happiness Matters: It’s important to be in a relationship that makes you happy, fulfilled and loved. An unhappy or stressed state is a sign that something isn’t right.
Trust Your Gut: Don’t ignore that nagging feeling if it’s been bothering you for some time. Most of the time, your instincts are right.
Not All Relationships Are Meant to Last: In some cases, a relationship that was great once may no longer be a good fit in the future. It’s okay for relationships to run their course as people change and circumstances change.
Communication Doesn’t Always Fix Everything: In relationships, communication is crucial, but sometimes things may not improve despite having talked it out. It’s okay to walk away if it’s not working.
Your Well-Being: Ending a relationship that feels wrong can have a positive impact on your mental and emotional well-being.
Life Is Too Short: It’s not worth it to stay in a relationship that feels like a constant struggle. Ending it can open up new opportunities for better and more compatible relationships in the future.
There’s no doubt that ending a relationship is never easy, and it’s okay to seek support from friends, family, or a therapist. It’s an important decision that should be made with care, but don’t be afraid to prioritize your happiness before anything else.
Love,
Kiara!
