    Obviously you have conflicting feelings about whether or not you are in a relationship that is good for you. You want to be in it, but you aren't sure if you should be in it and wonder if you could do better. That's why you don't know if you are happy or not. Here are some tips to help you decide whether you are in a happy relationship worth staying in or not:

    1) Are you able to be yourself, completely with this person without faking who you are to please them?

    2) Do you feel safe with them? 100 % of the time...

    3) Are you comfortable around them?

    if you answered yes to all of these, then I think your fine. However, here are some things to indicate whether you might need to say goodbye or not:

    1) He/She lowers your self esteem

    2) They pressure you to do things you don't want to

    3) You spend a good amount of time wondering if you deserve better

    Chances are, if you are wondering whether you could be happier, then you really could. If you have more than one relationship to look back on, you can compare. The best thing I can say to you is this: make a list of the things you feel you deserve/want, and the things that are absolutely no no's. Then look for a match. You shouldn't have to settle for anything less. That doesn't mean you should expect perfection, but you don't have to settle for something less than you deserve. Hope I helped.

    Take heart, I've also suffered with depression on and off for years. It doesn't mean that you can't have a healthy and happy relationship with a man, more likely, you just haven't found the right man yet. Also you need to make sure that you are getting the right treatment for your depression, because that can make all the difference in the world. Please don't listen to people who tell you that you can just pull yourself out of it. Untreated depression can have serious consequences. If you really hate the thought of being medicated then speak to your Dr about Cognitive Behaviour Therapy or seeing a councillor to help you through it. Also, I believe, that it's hard to believe someone else can love or be interested in you if you don't love and like yourself. Concentrate on doing things to make yourself feel happy and whole again and love will come along when you least expect it. Minxy

    Don't know. All I know is when I'm unhappy. It's very obvious, like a cancer eating away at my stomach. Not a good feeling.

    The real answer is, when it happens you will know.

    Mean while, being with some one you like and sharing things can stop you from feeling miserable.

    Well, are you happy?

    if "yes", then you are happy in your relationship. Otherwise, no.

    Am I missing something here?

    if he makes you laugh

    if it feels like friendship between the two of you

    don't think you'll always feel "in love"
