Admitting that your partner has stopped loving you or you have stopped loving him can sometimes be difficult. However, it is necessary. Here are signs to help you realize that the relationship is over.
Love is a changeable thing. It can be compared in fire: it glows, then it barely glows. And, like fire, it tends to go out, and then the relationship turns into torment for both of you.
- A trifle annoys you. For example, Anna Karenina began to irritate her husband's ears. If you feel this way about your partner, it’s rubbish. If earlier something that did not cause any reaction is now unbearably annoying, and what you liked repels, most likely, this is the end.
- Your partner doesn't want to look at you. He turns away all the time, tries not to cross his eyes. Unwillingness to see a person is a very serious signal that means a big change in a relationship. Negative, of course.
- Formal conversations replace casual, live communication and are conducted more to take time and create a semblance of interest. The partner listens without interest to the story of your affairs and also talks about his own without interest.
- The partner is often annoyed with or without reason, may snap back during a conversation for no apparent reason.
- Constant disagreement and arguments become a habit. Or, during the discussion, the partner "keeps silent" the answer or remark, as if not wanting to even enter into the discussion.
- You subconsciously feel that this is the end, that no development will come in sight and all that remains for you is to endure silently.
- You feel like you are wasting your time. Boredom and doom comes through in everything about your relationship, and you don't know how to deal with it or whether you need to deal with it at all.
- You are not interested in listening to your partner, communication with him squeezes all the juices of life out of you.
- The partner no longer smiles at you and, if you look closely, generally holds his breath in your presence. This is due to the fact that on an instinctive level, your natural smell has become unpleasant to him.
- Your partner no longer holds the conversation. It seems that he is generally trying to close all the topics that you suggest, as quickly as possible.
- Your partner is fencing off from you. It feels like there is a "dead zone" around you, both physically and morally. This applies to activities, topics for conversation, physical contact, in short, all aspects of your communication with your partner.
- The partner stops responding to the environment that is indirectly related to you. These may be your favorite colors or styles of clothing, and some of your phrases uttered by others make your partner stay away from these people.
Someone will say that these are trifles and they do not mean anything. But it just so happened that from such trifles, of which our whole life consists, the overall picture is formed. Be careful if you notice that your partner is burdened by this relationship, and prepare for the worst. This will give you a chance to withstand this blow more firmly.
