relationship is perfect", well that's true. But we all want that healthy,
sweet, peaceful and relaxing relationship, where you and your partner settle
all misunderstanding amicably.

always draining and full of negativity.

with your partner virtually or physically. When you noticed criticism, sarcasm
and hostility in your communication with your partner, that's a sign of
toxicity.

Constant
drainage

water drainage. I mean emotional, physical, spiritual and mental drainage. When
you feel drained in all aspects in your relationship, it's becoming a toxic
relationship. Watch out for how your positive energy and vibes get drained.
