If you have an unhealthy relationship, you're better off ending it as soon as possible. Though, a long term relationship might seem hard to end, because you possibly love this said person. If you realize that it is an unhealthy relationship you are all ready in the step of the right direction!

first .. if it's dangerous or threatning your safety you need to call a special service ... if it doesn't ... you better talk to him directly and tell him you don't feel like it'll work out ... if you're scared from his reaction take someone with you ... what's important is to stop the relation before you feel more related to him .. and focus on forgeting him

The best is to make a decision and stick to it. Leaving a relationship is hard and we are always worried that we will regret it, but we should think about how the relationship is affecting us. Are you happy? Do you feel safe? Do you see a future for this relationship? If not be strong and break it off - better things are yet to come!

Best way is to get yourself apart for a moment and see the way your relationship is going. Making sure to you that you deserve the best from someone, talk to the person and dont regret your desicion because life will have something better and someone better prepared for you

Calmly and respectfully tell the person how you're feeling and why you want to end the relationship. Communication is key. Let your partner speak as well, honor their feelings as well as your own. If you ever feel you're in danger, you should tell someone before you begin talking to them.

Realize that it's an unhealthy relationship first of all,then do everything that you can to walk away. It's not worth the pain and suffering to stay

Be straight up front. Say the following "This isn't good for you, and it isn't good for me. I think it's best we stop seeing each other." If things happen to go bad, and you feel your safety is at risk, there are many ways if preventing any harm your way. ALSO, if you feel telling them in person will put yourself in danger, its okay to use a free pass once in your life to do a breakup over the phone, preferably, not over text.

First, you need to contemplate if this is actually what you want. Next, decide on a proper, kind way to tell the other person. It is wise to do this as soon as possible, hopefully in a safe setting.
