It might hurt badly, but at some point, it'll become clear that some relationships can no longer stand.
Letting go is often the most difficult things, especially if that relationship was once very rosy, and looked destined to be one of those love stories with genuine happy endings.

Some of them are just not meant to be, and if things ever get as bad as the 5 scenarios painted below, letting go, and seeking happiness in some other place might be the best thing to do.

So, you can stop hanging on when...

1. THE TRUST'S GONE

At some point, that guy was all you could talk about because he was not far from your thoughts all day long.

But somehow, life and happiness got sucked out of the relationship and even when people ask about him, you just mumble and change the topic as quick as possible.

Time to let go, perhaps?

5. THINGS HAVE GONE FLAT AND DULL.

No more discussions or time spent together no longer holds the thrill it once held, and you do not even look forward to seeing or spending time with them anymore.

These things hurt, but when it comes to this point where loving your significant other feels like a dreaded chore you'd rather not do, then you should know that it is time to get out of the relationship.

7. WHEN THE MOUNT IS FINISHED

in other words, you have seen them FINISH
