I am guilty of this and I feel bad for it. I have tried to be so intentional and intentional and intentional with my partner and my partner has tried to be so intentional and intentional with me. I think it’s because we both have a lot of things we want and strive for but aren’t satisfied.
I see a similar pattern with my relationships. I know that I want to be more attentive and intentional to my partner, but I also know that I want to be more intentional and intentional with my partner and the person I am with.
This is why relationships that are not intentional and intentional can end up killing the relationship.
It’s called a toxic relationship because it tends to be one where there is no emotional connection, where no one feels committed to one another, and where you seem to be acting on unconscious impulses.
It could be that the relationship you have with your partner is toxic because you are afraid to trust your partner. Or it could be because you are afraid to love. The thing is, you may feel that you cannot trust your partner or love when your partner does not trust you or love you. The two things are mutually exclusive, so they cannot co-exist. One of the reasons I can feel this way is because I have a number of close friends with whom I have had a toxic relationship.
The thing is even if you have a toxic relationship with your partner you are not necessarily wrong for feeling this way.
It may just be that you are toxic. You do not have to be completely toxic to feel this way. But it does help to know that you are not actually lying to yourself. It may be that your partner doesn’t trust you and that you don’t trust him.
It could be that you are not at liberty to trust your partner and that your partner doesn't trust you. If this is the case, this could be a sign that you have a toxic relationship. However, if you think you aren't being truthful to yourself but are being truthful to your partner, then you are. If you have a toxic relationship with your partner, then that is your problem.
Our relationship with our spouse is the easiest example of a relationship that is toxic and one that I can relate to. When we are together, it is very easy to not trust each other. It is very easy to not trust our partner in the relationship. The problem is there is no way to fix that. When we are together, we are always being honest with each other. There is never any need to lie. We do not have to “lie to ourselves.
