Give the other person the necessary amount of time to reflect on their behavior as well.
And if you truly feel like you’re not being respected and that your partner is constantly projecting negative feelings towards you, then the best thing to do is step aside, but make sure they know why you’re leaving.
This way, you’ll be allowing the other person to also think about what they did wrong and grow from it, so it doesn’t happen again.
Most of the time, people only wake up when they have a reality check, it might be a hard thing to do, but leaving can sometimes be your only option.
3. Try to understand what’s going on with your partner
By the form your partner speaks to you and blames you, you might assume their problem has to do with you, but that’s not always the case.
A lot of times, we end up discharging and projecting our anger from work into our family and friends. It’s not the right thing to do, but it happens.
Let’s say your partner had a tough day at work; once they get home, they give you an attitude, or they seem to be complaining about everything that you’re doing.
In your perspective, your partner is being mean, but in their perspective, they had an awful day that you don’t even know about.
Try establishing healthy communication with your partner. Figure out what’s going on behind the scenes, with their family, work, and so on.
It’s easy to forget that the other person also has a life, objectives, and experiences outside the relationship bubble. It’s up to you to break that bubble and inform yourself about what’s going on outside.
4. Speak up about how you feel
If your partner laches on to manipulative behavior, there’s no turning back.
This is why you should always keep your head up and never take the blame for something you didn’t do or isn’t your fault.
A toxic person starts blaming and making others feel guilty. If you don’t cut off this type of behavior right away, they’ll feel like they can keep doing this to you, which will only evolve into a big messy, and unhealthy relationship.
