Hidden Violence in Relationships

8. You forgive again and again. Recently, you have broken up several times for good – only to forgive again and promise to love each other for the rest of your lives. You forgive rude behavior, give a last chance, and believe empty promises that are never fulfilled. True love implies that both partners are equal, both equally give and take in the relationship. Of course, sometimes we may do things we don't want to for our loved ones, but when such actions become a habit, it's a bad sign. If two healthy individuals love each other, they respect each other's boundaries, share the burden of guilt when things go wrong, and try to find a way out of the situation together – without mutual insults and anger.
