Many people find themselves in or have been in unhealthy relationships, where a partner’s behaviour makes the relationship unsustainable. We often see examples of such relationships highlighted in the media, particularly among high-profile couples.
An unhealthy relationship is one in which one or both partners exhibit behaviours that prevent the relationship from thriving. This could include addictions, infidelity, abusive behaviour as well as other personal problems that end up affecting the other person and the relationship.
According to Bishop Renato and Cristiane Cardoso, hosts of the Love Therapy TV show in Brazil, unhealthy relationships usually start with one partner who was already struggling before the relationship began. The other partner may not have realised the extent of the problem or thought it was a minor issue that would be resolved after marriage.
In such cases, the other partner often becomes emotionally unwell as well; as they are unaware of how to cope with the situation.
When faced with a partner’s unhealthy behaviour, people generally choose one of two extremes: break up or become tolerant. That is, the one who tolerates believes that they can help the person heal or is hopeful that the person will change.
However, there is a third option: seeking help through the Love Therapy seminars, designed to guide you on how to effectively address the situation and make change possible.
