Have you thought about why you wanted to prevent your partner from breaking up with you? Think long and hard about your reasons. Question your intentions behind staying in the relationship. Consider if you reasons are beneficial for both you and your partner or if they are merely selfish. For example, you might have chosen to stay in the relationship only because you fear being single. Or you might try to prevent the breakup because you don't want to be the one getting dumped. Abusive behavior shouldn't be tolerated. If your partner is physically, sexually, verbally, or emotionally abusive, you are doing yourself a favor by leaving. It can be frightening to leave an abusive partner, but many people do it every day. Reach out to friends, family, or resources in your community to help you get the confidence you need to leave an abusive relationship. If you are in a relationship with an addict or someone with unhealthy behavioral patterns, your feelings of responsibility for the person may keep you from walking away. Being codependent may mean a good part of your self-worth is tied to caring for and supporting your partner. Such a relationship is unhealthy. Learn to recognize signs of codependency. Then, see a therapist privately to work on breaking the bonds that keep you in a toxic partnership. Some couples have a way of breaking up and making up over and over again. This is yet another unhealthy relationship pattern. If you or your partner has good reason to leave the relationship, you shouldn't keep defaulting on the decision. Make the difficult decision to leave for good.  End this cycle by getting real about the problems in your relationship. Don't rationalize or down-play what's making you unhappy. Work to improve other areas of your life, so you don't end up running back to your partner. Rebuild old friendships, find a passion, or commit to a new goal that makes your life more fulfilling without your partner. It may also help to see a counselor individually to address any fears you have of leaving your partner or of being alone.
