Why You Can’t Stay Away from Each Other, Even if You are Miserable

Are you in a toxic relationship and are you wondering why you can’t stay away from each other? Why, in spite of the hurt and the anger, breaking up is just impossible?

So many of us get in this position where, in spite of being absolutely miserable, we hold on, stuck in the cycle of suffering.

Why do we do that? For many reasons. Knowing them might help you finally realize that you can let of someone and get on with your life.

So, why can’t you stay away from each other?

#1 — Those moments of happiness.

You know what I am talking about — those moments when everything is great.

Perhaps its watching the kids open their Christmas presents, or uniting against difficult in-laws or simply enjoying a sunset together. Those moments that bring you back to where you were at the beginning of your relationship, when you were a team, when you loved each other.

Those moments are very potent ones and they are moments that make you pause and wonder if breaking up is a good idea, if perhaps there isn’t hope that you can work things out. They make you wonder if you could ever have moments like this with anyone else.
