Finding a significant other and maintaining a healthy relationship is not easy. So when we find someone we're interested in, we often stay in the relationship longer than we need to if/when it becomes unhealthy. It's hard enough to let our guard down and allow someone to see us in our most fragile state, but it's also a priority that we never lose ourselves when our love isn't reciprocated.
Never in any relationship, should you ever feel that you've lost yourself, trying to please someone else. Here are five signs that you may have lost your self-worth in your relationship.
- Allowing your significant other to constantly show signs of disrespect.
- Staying in the relationship because you feel like you won't find anyone else.
- No longer engaging in your favorite hobbies and interests.
- Taking responsibility for all disagreements to keep things calm.

- Constantly apologizing for things just to make peace.
