8 Signs Of An Unhealthy Relationship

We all been been-there-done-this! I know I went through one 4 years ago and came out of it stronger and here to share my experience. Unhealthy relationships are usually with the one we fell flat-on-our-face-for. So intense that you lose yourself! But you need to recognize the damage before becoming handicapped.

Signs that your relationship is unhealthy:

1. Your significant other is the only person you hang out with
2. You flake out on people & responsibilities to spend more time with your gf/bf
3. There’s abuse (mental, verbal, physical, emotional) from either sides
4. You have no support system besides him/her
5. Deep down, you feel like you’ve lost yourself
6. You’re constantly disappointed
7. There’s constant jealousy and no trust
8. He/she restricts you (hanging out with certain people, goals)

Get out of there as soon as possible, or you’ll build up so much resentment that you’ll explode! If you do, it’ll be too late to salvage a friendship.

Gain a healthy relationship through:

A. Balance
She/he can be an important part of your life, but not what your life is all about. You need to balance your time, priorities, wants, needs and self.

B. Communication
Don’t let things bottle up inside. Be sure to communicate effectively to improve your connection. If you there’s something bothering you, then tell her/him that.

C. Understanding
Take the time to listen and understand where she/he is coming from. This will help with patience and it’ll strengthen your bond. She/he will feel like they can open up to you.

D. Independence
A person who can hold their own (opinion, goals, thoughts, social life) shows independence. No one wants a super slingy person.

Healthy N’ Fit’s Muscular Weight Gain Vanilla 4.4Lb $59.89 Gain Weight Naturally Description : Our name (MUSCULAR WEIGHT GAIN) implies our product is geared for only bodybuilders and athletes. Although it was formulated with the bodybuilder and athlete in mind, the concept was to make a product that anyone can use to gain weight naturally. In combination with training, MUSCULAR WEIGHT GAIN was formulated to produce a quality weight gain of lean body mass (healthy muscle tissue) and not adipose weight (unhealthy fat tissue). Competing brands available are highly saturated with white sugar (sucrose), starch, hydrogenated vegetable oils, fats and other junk and inexpensive ingredients to boost calorie content. Be leary of these companies as these non-nutritive additives will produce a definite weight gain, but one of fat tissue, which is not healthy and a burden on your entire system especially your heart. Many physicians and nutritionists feel white and brown sugars are a hazard to your health. Products with artificial sweetener should also be avoided. HEALTHY N FIT MUSCULAR WEIGHT GAIN contains only natural fruit sugar (fructose) allowing you to avoid white and brown sugar side effects without giving up sweetness, a terrific natural energy source and the beneficial protein sparing effect of fructose Supplement Facts: Serving Size 135 gramsServings Per Container 15Calories 540Calories from Fat 38Total Fat 4gSaturated Fat 0gCholesterol 5mgSodium 270mgTotal Carbohydrate 59gDietary Fiber 0gSugars (natural-Fructose) 18gProtein 61g Other Ingredients: 100% Whey Protein with Beta-Lactalglobulin, alpha-lactalbumin, serum albumin, immunoglobulins, calcium caseinate, 100% egg protein, whey hydrolysate amino acids, proprietary 100% pure blend (10 grams per serving) of creatine monohydrate, ribose and glutamine, protein sparing crystalline fructose, new tech concentrated glucose polymers (complex carbohydrates), vanilla flavoring, natural stevia herb, lactase, papain and bromelain (natural enzymes).
