Signs You are Settling In A Relationship

Settling has to be one of the worst feelings. You’re constantly having thoughts in your head whether or not you guys are a good fit. I have put together a list of signs for people who are settling or don’t even know that they are settling.

1. You Justify

You can try to convince yourself as much as you want that you are happy but deep down you aren’t. You shouldn’t have to explain to yourself or others why you are dating your partner.

2. The Little Things Bother You...Too Much

Bad habits from your partner is normal once you guys both let that wall down and get comfortable with each other, but when every little thing they do irks you, that’s another sign you guys don’t need to be together.

3. You’re Constantly Comparing

Comparing yourself to other couples is definitely a red flag. It’s like you look at other relationships and see how much happier they look and wish that was you. And it can. You just have to leave the person you are with because they no longer fulfill your happiness.

4. You Keep Thinking Your Partner Will Change

If you keep viewing your current problem in your relationship as something that will go over that’s another indication that you’ve settled yourself into unhappiness. People are who they are. And how they treat you is how they feel about you. Stop thinking that overtime things will change because it will only get worse.

5. You Don’t Want To Be Alone

It’s important to learn how to be alone and have some time to yourself. A lot of times people who settle cannot be alone for a second because they don’t like the fact that they feel lonely. Knowing your worth and loving yourself you won’t feel lonely, you will actually enjoy your alone time.
