How to leave a toxic relationship
1. Understand that you deserve to be treated better
The first way to leave a toxic relationship is to realize that you deserve the best. This is the hallmark of everything I’m going to share with you, in this article. You don’t deserve to be in a relationship that does not help you to become a better version of yourself. No matter how ugly or bad you think you are, you don’t deserve to be treated badly. You are worthy of something good, a meaningful relationship.

2. Initiate a breakup with them
If you are still living with your toxic partner and you are wondering how to get out of the relationship? The best thing to do is to initiate a breakup with them. Tell them they have tried for you but the relationship is not working nor is it adding value to your life. Therefore, you need to end it for good.
If you think your partner is going to hurt you, then avoid telling them. Park out of the house when he is not around and make sure you drop a note for him.
If you’re not living together with your toxic partner, make arrangements on how to break up with them. You can do that over the phone or by simply telling them when you go on a date. But make sure you understand the type of person he is and avoid breaking up in a lonely place or in his room. He might rape or even strangle you to death.

6. Stick to your decision
After ending the relationship, try everything possible to keep the distance. Stick to your decision. It is not your responsibility to check on your ex to know how they’re coping with the breakup. Just leave them alone. They will be fine without you, and you will also be fine without them.

What to say when ending a toxic relationship
Start by appreciating your partner for all their efforts, and highlight a few things you like about them. After that, tell them you’re no more interested in the relationship, and that you want a breakup or a divorce. Give your reasons but keep everything polite and simple. Don’t tell stories just to convince them. If they don’t understand, they should leave it. All you want is a breakup.
