Are You in a One-Sided Relationship?

7psychics.comJuly 28, 2023August 8, 2024

Being in a one-sided relationship will never make you happy. You have to give and give and give and you will never get something back. Do you feel that you are in a relationship that is one sided and you don’t see the effort from your partner that you feel that you deserve?

Maybe you do too much for your partner and this can be physically, emotionally, or even mentally. The give and take should be equal and balanced.

Two-Sided Love

Love is great when it comes from both directions. Love can bring you happiness and peace. It can become stronger over time and if that is happening then you will see that your love is important to you and your partner.

Maybe the bad relationships that you have had have affected how your heart feels about things. You might feel that you are being cheated even if you aren’t because of your past hurt.  But, if you are in a relationship that is one-sided, you will regret staying with this person and you will see that you have wasted years of your time.

Be honest with what is going on and if your relationship is only one-sided, you need to make a decision.

Why is a One-Sided Relationship Bad?

You might think that your relationship isn’t toxic, but the truth is when there is no balance, then this is a toxic situation for you. Even if your partner isn’t abusing you or cheating on you, it doesn’t mean that the relationship is actually good.

A one-sided relationship can mean that you aren’t getting your needs met by your partner. Maybe you are always making sure that they have what they want and need but you aren’t getting anything in return.

When your own needs aren’t being met, you will not feel loved, and you will not feel confident in your relationship. You will also feel that you are being taken advantage of by our partner. If you are the only one that is giving, you will end up resenting the relationship and wishing that you ended it.

If you feel that you are being taken advantage of, it will cause there to be arguments and it will cause there to be pain. You will need to do something so that you can get your needs met as well.

What Causes These Types of Relationships?

One-sided relationships can happen for many different reasons. Maybe you are the person that has no self-confidence and so you feel that if you are always giving then the person will love you. Or, you might have had bad past experiences that cause you to do these things.

It can be just a pattern that you have both accepted and no one is saying that anything is wrong, and you don’t even realize that there is a problem. The best thing that you can do is to figure out what is going on in your relationship.

Signs of a One-Sided Relationship

Here are some signs that you might be in a one-sided relationship:

  • They Don’t Know You

If you have been dating someone for a long time but they still don’t know you, this can mean your relationship is one-sided.

  • The Don’t Give Back

When you are always doing something nice and they don’t do something nice back to you, it can mean that they don’t appreciate what you do.

  • Making Plans

You both should be making plans to do things together. You shouldn’t be the only one planning vacations, dinners, and dates. If they aren’t giving back in this, then you are in a one-sided relationship.

  • They Aren’t There

One of the biggest signs that your relationship is one sided is that they aren’t around when you need them. They should be there to support and love you and if they aren’t then they aren’t there for you totally.

  • Many Issues

The issues that you have should be noticed. If they aren’t, you are in a one-sided relationship, and something has to change.

  • Other People Tell You

Sometimes you will have people in your life that tell you that they don’t like your partner. If you find this to be happening often then they are seeing something you aren’t.

  • The Pick Others Over You

Your partner should pick you over other people. If they are picking their friends over, you then they aren’t meant for you. Of course, they should be able to spend time with people besides you but if you feel that they will always choose someone over you then this is a bad sign.

  • Saying Sorry

Even when you are right, you say sorry so that you can keep the peace. This shows that they aren’t being responsible in the relationship. They might be someone that likes to guilt trip you.

  • Always Feel Uneasy

Does your partner make you feel that you are always doing something wrong or make you feel that you have to walk on eggshells? You aren’t comfortable with them or with your own self. Don’t let their behavior make you be someone you aren’t.

  • They Don’t Care

One real sign that you know that the relationship is one sided is when they don’t care, and they show it. This is a feeling that is hard to get over. Dump them and move on.

  • You Aren’t Happy

Relationships should be happy from the beginning to the end. If you find that you are no longer happy, this is probably because you are in a one-sided relationship.

  • They Are Comfortable

If you ask your partner to change things around like go earth or do something new, they object and act angry over it. This can be a relationship where there is no room for change. This isn’t healthy.

  • You Accept Change

Even if they hate change and you ask them over and over again, but you are the only one changing, you are probably in a one-sided relationship.

  • No Effort

Your partner isn’t putting effort in the relationship, and they aren’t showing you that you are important.

  • Keep People from You

If they are not letting you see your family or your friends, this is not good. A partner that loves you wants you to be around people that make you feel happy.

  • Asking

You shouldn’t have to ask your partner to do things for you, especially small things. If you have to ask them to bring you flowers or to get you a drink, the truth is, they aren’t noticing your needs. They probably are only taking you for granted.

  • You Feel Taken for Granted

You will come to the point where you know when someone is taking you for granted. If you bring it up and they tell you that it’s all in your head, this is a one-sided relationship.

  • Being Open

Maybe you are the only one that is being open in what is going on in the relationship and in everyday life. You might tell your partner about what is going on in your life only to find that they aren’t sharing things with you.

  • Saying Nice Things

When you find that your partner isn’t saying nice things to you, this can mean that you are no longer close. This can mean that they only care about themselves.

  • They Don’t Keep Their Word

They do something one way and tell you something differently. You might even feel that you are being lied to. Maybe they act like they want to spend time with you but every free minute they have they go to spend it with someone else. This can be a relationship that only you care about.

  • Bad Habits

Your partner might pick up bad habits such as drinking, doing drugs or other things. They should love you enough to give these things up. You should inspire and show good things to each other but if they are only showing poor choices and decisions, this is a bad sign.

  • No Change

A good couple is able to talk about things and work through changes. If your partner refuses to listen to you and doesn’t want to make changes to make the relationship better, then they are only worried about how they feel.

  • Problem Solving

You should be able to solve problems together. Even though every relationship has fights, you should be able to solve them. If you are fighting without any solving, this can be a problem in the relationship.

  • You Do the Planning

You have been planning on moving and you are the only one looking at houses and trying to make changes. Even when you tell your partner, he doesn’t want to talk about it or do anything that can bring about the change. The plans are just there and are never going anywhere.

  • No Goals

You want to be with this person and get married, but they have no end goals with you. You live in an apartment and there is no talk about marriage or buying a house.

  • You Are Growing Apart

You know that you aren’t as close to them as you used to be. You see that things are one-sided, and you are growing apart.

  • Bringing Out the Worst

Even on good days you bring out the worst of each other. You feel happier by yourself and doing things on your own. This isn’t right and this isn’t healthy.

  • No Trust

The bad habits are there, there is no notice of change and things are just getting worse. Chances are that there is a trust issue and if you aren’t both willing to fix it then there can’t be peace.

  • Finding the Happy Place

You can’t remember the last time that you were happy with your partner or even yourself. You feel that you have let yourself down and that you are on the verge of breaking up. Even though you love them, you need to be in a relationship that is two sided and that you aren’t the only one giving.

  • Being in a One-Sided Relationship

If you believe that your relationship is one-sided, the best thing that you can do is to get out of it. If you can’t sit down and talk things through and figure out how to fix the relationship, then it will be full of problems.  You have to set boundaries and you have to learn to stick to these things.

If the boundaries don’t work, you might need to decide if it is worth being in the relationship and feeling used. Otherwise, you need to decide what is best for you and figure out what to do next.
