A relationship is hard work which is why, if you really love someone you will be willing to invest in your relationship with the assumption that it is going to last forever. But what you need to understand is that emotions are a little complicated.
Maybe at the beginning of your relationship, you and your partner were inseparable but now you’re starting to notice a distance forming between the both of you, even when your together. It is like you’re so close yet so far.
The reason for this might be that they are falling out of love with you. Although it is heart-breaking and emotionally draining to watch someone you care and love slowly fall out of love with you, you need to know that you deserve better.
Here are a few subtle signs that your partner might just be over your relationship:
1. They start noticing your flaws
You know the saying love is blind? Yeah, well that is sort of true. When you’re in love, all your flaws and the annoying things you do just seems so cute to them.
But now that they are slowly falling out of love with you, they start noticing these flaw and annoying habits of yours. All of a sudden, they can’t accept it anymore and they seem super irritated and annoyed by you.
2. They just stop fighting with you
You might think that not fighting is a good thing but actually it really isn’t. It just means that they don’t have any emotional energy left to invest or they simply don’t have the desire to have the tough conversations with you.
Having small arguments or disagreements in a relationship is healthy. It shows that you and your partner still care about your relationship and want to make things work. When a partner is falling out of love, they just give up trying and don’t really seem to care about the relationship anymore.
3. They stop talking about their future with you
Maybe a few months ago you were lying down in bed and talking about your dream house together but now they just seem to be avoiding any topics about he future. All of a sudden, they just don’t want to plan your annual vacation together.
This just shows you that they have one foot out of the door to your relationship. They don’t want to think about their future with you because they don’t think your relationship is going to last or maybe they are already seeing their future without you in it!
4. They’re suddenly too busy for you
All of a suddenly, they become the busiest person on earth. They always cancel plans, avoid making plans or just is too busy for anything you want to do.
You might even start feeling like less of a priority because they make plans with everyone else but you. They even stop informing you about their plans and just go ahead and do stuff. Maybe you’ve cooked them a nice dinner, but they only come home after dinner saying they ate with a friend.
5. They just stop trying
You’re the only one who seems to be trying to make things work and they are just there but not really doing anything. They are like that one group member who doesn’t do anything in a group project.
A relationship is a two-way street. You shouldn’t be the only one showing love and treating your partner well. You deserve to be loved and to be treated well too.
