In a relationship, the person you’re with should serve to empower and strengthen you, rather than diminish your sense of self-worth. When you love someone, you are dedicated to providing them with support and encouragement. A partner who consistently criticizes or belittles you, even if it’s done subtly or in a passive-aggressive manner, can have a detrimental impact on your self-esteem. When they make statements such as:
- “You’re fortunate I’m still here.”
- “What do you even know how to do?”
These are clear indicators that it’s time to release yourself from such a relationship before it erodes.
