Start listing out the things you want and even demand from your relationship. This will be your set of guidelines that will make everything clear. E.g., you need your partner to be emotionally supportive; your partner needs to take responsibility for their actions; you both need to spend time to bond with each other, etc. Rightfully we all have needs that should be respected. From a different angle, instead of breaking up as the one solution, maybe the relationship needs repair and improvement. In any case, if you are starting to be unhappy and wonder if you need to break up, something needs to be done.
