Should You Stay Or Should You Go?

Deciding whether you should stay in a relationship or whether you should leave is something many people refuse to do. We all want to be in a relationship; we all want someone to love and someone to love us. No relationship is perfect. We all have ups and downs. However, there are times when we must look at our troubled relationships and really ask ourselves: Should I stay or should I go?

There may be something left to save and to work at. If there is still love in the relationship, if you still care and respect each other regardless of what has happened in the past, then there may be something left to save. If you both can sit down and talk about what your problems are in a mature and loving way and you decide that you both want to try to work it out, then you have a shot at getting to where you once were.

But remember, it takes two to make a relationship work; therefore, if only one person is doing the work or wants it to work, then it is better to walk away. If only one of you is bringing love and respect to the relationship, then that should give you something to think about. And if none of you is doing anything constructive, part ways. You should think about giving yourself and the other person a chance for happiness with someone else.
