In your relationship, are you the only one making the effort to work? Do you always feel frustrated and not listening? Be careful, these might be the hallmarks of an exemplary relationship.
In a relationship between two people, whether romantic, friendly or professional, communication, listening or trust will allow you to build a good and strong foundation. And both partners in the relationship need to give each other effort and attention for it to work.
On the same subject
But sometimes it can be a imbalance feltand only one person can do heavy lifting in a relationship, whether mental, physical, or emotional.
This imbalance can be temporary, if one of the two people sometimes too busy or stressed. There may be times when you run out of energy and allow your partner or friend to temporarily take over your relationship. If this imbalance stays limited in time and if it doesn’t start to become major in your relationship, it remains tolerable. However, it may require a lot of space between two people. In this case, let’s talk about one sided relationship. And this term can be used just like romantic relationships like friendly, family or professional relationships.
When does a partial relationship end?
Being in a one-sided relationship and not releasing it can indicate that you are in a codependent relationship, that is, you are sidelining the other. If this situation suits you for a while and makes you feel loved, eventually it will affect your self -esteem and be a source of suffering.
And if you feel like you’re giving more than you’ve got in a relationship, it’s time for you to make that relationship meaningful again, or ask yourself if it’s really there for you. Talk openly and calmly with your partner and watch his reaction. If someone seems unwilling to change or spend a lot of time with you, the relationship can be toxic.

You always apologize You spend your time compromising and regretting everything that happens in your relationship. Excessive apology can be a way to make sure everything is fine in your relationship and crash in front of your partner so he or she understands how valuable he or she is to us. But that is not a sign of a healthy relationship.
Communication is only one way When you talk to your partner, you always listen carefully. But on the contrary, you don’t listen in return.
