Please do not think a relationship is your ticket to an immediate “happily ever after.” Relationships can be incredibly rewarding, but are a lot of work. You should analyze the reasons for your unhappiness. Is it the relationship, work, internal, other stress? If you are unhappy and stressed with your own life, getting into a relationship will not fix that. In order to have a happy functional relationship you need to be satisfied with your own life, spiritually, physically and mentally.
If you are truly unhappy and you think it may be the relationship then it is time for introspection. Is ending the relationship going to eliminate stress from your life? Do you think the unhappiness of ending the relationship will be less than the happiness of being free? If so, then you may at the very least want to take a break. Also, be sure you have been clear with communicating with your SO (Significant Other). If something very specific is bothering you, tell them. Maybe it is something they can change. However, if they are mistreating you then you should extricate yourself posthaste!
If you are being mistreated to the point of abuse (mentally and/or physically) please get help and get out. There are many service organizations in your area that can help. Also, read “The Gift of Fear,” by Gavin de Becker as I mentioned in a previous entry. I love you and I want you to be safe and happy.
