There's an Irish proverb which says, "Better married and fighting than single and lonely."
While there are plenty of exceptions, I suppose it's generally true that even bad relationships contribute something positive to your life that their absence does not. At the very least, remaining in a relationship affords the opportunity for tremendous personal growth. Of course, too, it's true that the grasss is greener on the other side, but sometimes that actually is true. Either way, I'd say that if it ain't broke, don't fix it. There will be plenrty of opportunity for things to break down all on their own without you needing to interfere to guarantee that result.
I know this is all a bunch of cliches, but I hope they've been helpful anyway. Then again, there's always the following to consider:

Quote:The supposed wisdom of proverbs is mainly imaginary. As a rule, proverbs go in pairs which say opposite things. The opposite of 'More haste, less speed' is 'A stitch in time saves nine.' The opposite of 'Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves,' 'Penny wise, pound foolish.' The opposite of 'Two heads are better than one,' is 'Too many cooks spoil the broth.' And so on.
The great advantage of a proverb in argument is that it is supposed to be incontrovertible, as embodying the quintessential sagacity of our ancestors. But when once you have realised that proverbs go in pairs which say opposite things you can never again be downed by a proverb; you merely quote the opposite.
— Bertrand Russell
