Have a mantra, stop all contact and know your value. If someone isn't helping you grow as a person walk away.

For starters, by realizing that you deserve better. Loving someone just isn’t enough if you aren’t receiving the same love in return. The time you waste on the wrong person prevents the right person from coming your way. Stop waiting for your partner to change. Change has to come from within; it can’t be forced.

That pain would be the way to gain the changes needed to be brought about in your life, to move on. Take time off to recollect and regroup, if need be. Take things slow, baby steps at a time, to healing. It's all so worth it,in the end.

Leave or tell the person to leave if you live together. Let them know this is over and know that you owe no one an explanation. Explanation in toxicity is just not productive. Head high, make your end known and then stick to your resolve. Remind yourself it was toxic and find ways to be ok with lonely sometimes
