This is a valid fear many have, especially those in toxic or abusive relationships. It is okay to be scared or afraid, we are humans who have emotions and not robots. Sometimes we are scared to do something, but we make the choice to follow through. A good tip for me is to really ask yourself what love looks like to you. If it doesn't match your current partners behaviors, maybe it is time to break up. The first bit after a breakup can be an adjustment due to that single feeling being so new and you may miss some memories or experiences. But sometimes we have to find the love we truly deserve and sometimes, it isn't in our current relationships.

If you want to break up with a person, just do it because I know it's painful to leave a relationship but, if you keep dragging it on the happy memories of the relationship would fade. Also, about you feeling that you'll never be loved that's not true. From the question I feel like you should love yourself more because then you'll see how much great qualities you have as a person. I know it's easy to say Love yourself but, it's truly one of the hardest journey a human being goes through. Also, you'll never not be loved so, don't feel that way.

You are the most important person in your life. You live and die with you. You know you dont want this relationship just like you know someone else will love you when you love yourself. You are stronger than you think and give credit to your self. The relationship has ran its course and it's time your path takes a different route than the relationship you are in is leading you. There is so much more life to live and it's a more enjoyable and exciting life having it filled with people who truly love you and that includes you loving yourself.

Ask yourself why you think that no one will ever love you again. Surely, that's impossible. Learn to know your own worth and accept the fact that you deserve to be with someone who loves you and not in a relationship where you feel undervalued. There are two paths you can take - stay in your current relationship and remain unhappy, or end your relationship and move on to someone/something that will make you happy. It sounds as if you don't love yourself enough. If you can face the reality of knowing that you are worthy and you can be happy, then moving on will be all the better.

I believe you shouldn't be scared to break up. You will love and be loved again one day. It might take a while, and it can be scary to be on your own again, but it gets better with time. If you are not truly happy in your relationship, it will just fester until your relationship is toxic, ends in a messy breakup, or your mental health suffers. You should be as honest as possible with your partner. If you are not happy in your relationship, sit your partner down and talk. You might be able to come to a compromise.

I believe it certainly depends on what sort of vision and perspective you hold towards life and love and the quality of those two simultaneously. I believe there are two options; you either risk not finding someone who could really make you happy whilst wasting the other’s time as well, or admitting your true feelings, working on yourself and waiting for the right time to find your real love. I think it is really unfair for the both of you to hold onto a relationship that you would not even want anymore.. Now, the decision is yours; what will it be?

You deserve to be happy. If the person you're with doesn't make you happy, then it's not helping either of you to stay together. The only way to find someone that makes you happy is to open yourself up to that possibility. The more comfortable that you are with your life, the more other people will be drawn to you and the more opportunities you will have to connect with others. When you become your best self by catering to your own needs, people will want to be around you and you will feel more comfortable connecting to other people.

If you want to break up with your current partner, there must be a reason for it. Presumably, you are not happy in your relationship. In my experience, staying in a relationship you are not fully happy with is not fair on you OR your partner. You both deserve the opportunity to find a relationship where everybody involved is happy and fulfilled. The fear that nobody will love you again is a scary one, but you just have to remember that there is a reason your current partner wanted to be with you, and there will be somebody else who feels the same way. In the meantime, maybe consider reaching out for support to assist with your self esteem - the most important relationship you will ever be in is the one you're in with yourself.

I thought the same exact thing when I was in this relationship with this person I don't like. It's not uncommon to think that way. Some one will love you again. You cannot just sit and wait for them however. Find a hobby and figure out what you want to do with your life and if someone comes by and likes you? Great!! When you feel like that, you are putting yourself low. Confidence is what you need. I believe everyone is lovable, because everyone is good at the core. Breaking up is painful, but nothing is more painful that staying stuck somewhere that you don't belong. Without change, you can't grow. As hard as it is, if you want to break up, it wouldn't be fair to you or your partner, to stay in a relationship when you aren't committed anymore. Everything happens for a reason. You will find love again. Try to hold onto faith, and stay positive. Stay strong.

Aww honey, it's never like that..You know from my personal experience, I had to break up with a guy who I thought was perfect to me..I neglected all his faults, differences and when he told me everything happens for the best, I didnt wanna believe it..But it is true indeed...Guess what? I soon found a guy who is exactly what I always wanted..It feels tailourmade like two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and I'm thankful I broke up with my ex bf at that time..So you never know unless you try..everything happens for the best..Just have faith and be positive..Things always have a way of working out for the best!Loads of love and strength to you🧡
