How do you know if it's the right time to give up on a certain circumstance?
This is in particular to toxic relationships. Most especially in marriage.
A friend shared her experience to me about the status of her marriage.
She got pregnant at a young so they had to get married. Years went by, she noticed that her husband has become so addicted to alcohol.
Since then, it has been a chaotic environment inside the house. They always fight, and misunderstandings always lead to make up sex without fixing the main issue and so the cycle goes on and on, and even got worse as physical abuse is already involved.
They already have 3 children and it has been tough to her, for crying out loud.
This has always been her problem for years. So I asked her, "why don't you just give up and let go of him? It must have so hard for you. You deserve happiness and peace."
She wanted to save the marriage for her children. She gave him a second chance but all she saw was just a fake repentance. He was not sincere at all of redeeming himself.
So she decided to leave together with her children and part ways.
Failed marriage is one of the reasons why children become rebellious growing up because of the lack of guidance of both parents. It plays a huge impact of a child's development as a whole.
A complete family would be an ideal image of anyone in life. However, sometimes it is better to give up, and to let go of the toxicity.
when to give up nga ba?ang hirap talaga ng ganitong sitwasyon but if the relationship is not healthy anymore you really need to let it go..
