About This Podcast
A person should consider stepping back when the relationship begins to affect their mental health, happiness, or personal growth negatively. When efforts are one-sided, trust is repeatedly broken, or there is a lack of appreciation and understanding, taking a break can help both partners evaluate what truly matters. It also allows emotions to settle so that better decisions can be made without anger or pressure.
