Unhappy relationship: Why do we stay anyway?

Stefanie Stahl is a bestselling author and psychotherapist, Lukas Klaschinski is a podcast star and psychologist. This time in their joint column they talk about separations that are long overdue – but still difficult.

This text first appeared in June 2024.

Lukas Klaschinski: We all know people, or are one of them ourselves, who have the same experience over and over again: They stay in relationships for too long. Usually, it is only afterwards that they realize how emotionally drained they felt, how much energy and time they gave and how little they got back. They ask themselves: Why did I put up with it for so long? Why did I stay in an unhappy relationship? Steffi, have you ever been in a relationship like that?
