za I’m not going to help you to identify a broken relationship…you already know what a broken relationship is.
Discussing your pending separation or divorce with family or friends is a mistake. As much as they would like to assist you, they can seldom be impartial or objective. With narcissism, someone who has not experienced the trauma and stress that you are feeling, especially after narcissistic abuse, will never truly know what it is that you are going through.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
