Q: A friend of mine stated that I was in a toxic relationship. What are the signs of a toxic relationship?

Signed: T.O.~I Love Him

A: Well, due to the lack of details provided, let’s take inventory. Here are some questions that you can ask yourself to see if you are in a toxic relationship or not. This is not a complete list but it will give you a start in evaluating your relationship.

  1. Is this ONE friend or MANY friends who are telling you that you are in a toxic relationship?
  2. What is happening around this friend to cause such concern?
  3. Are you being abused physically, mentally or orally?
  4. Are you unable to think for yourself? Is your partner telling you when, where, what, how?
  5. Has your partner alienated you from your friends, family or both?
  6. Is your partner jealous of you or your circle of friends/family?
  7. Does your partner add value to the relationship?
  8. What goals are set for you, him, both?
  9. How does your partner treat his family (parents, siblings, friends)?
  10. Is your partner experiencing any mental illness that is causing you to make unhealthy decisions?
  11. Is your partner supportive of your personal and professional goals?
  12. Are YOU happy in your relationship?
Until next time, laugh, live and love life!

Love ya,
