“ended the relationship after cycle of unhealthiness”

ex and I had a 2-year long distance relationship that became unhealthy due to communication issues and emotional withdrawal

What I wish I knew
"communication issues can lead to emotional numbness"
If I could tell you one thing
"recognize signs of emotional withdrawal and address them before they lead to a toxic relationship"
