Girl, Take it Easy! 9 Impulsive Moves That Could Ruin a Relationship

5. Breakup

Everyone argues in a relationship, and it’s understandable to get angry at your partner from time to time. But not every indiscretion requires a breakup or the threat of one. So he came home late one night after hanging with his friends – it’s not a big deal. He didn’t notice your new haircut or he forgot to call you back after you texted him for the fifth time for no apparent reason. Sometimes we are so afraid of losing someone that we subconsciously find reasons to be angry with him in order to push him away and break up with him before he has a chance to leave us first. Sabotaging a relationship before it has had a chance to develop is a defense mechanism some people use to keep from getting hurt. If you find that you’re always ready to break up after the slightest disagreement, you’re probably carrying some unresolved issues with you that need to be dealt with before you can be in a healthy relationship.
