Are things seeming a little off in your relationship? Maybe that once magical spark now feels like a dull bulb that could go out at any moment. You may be headed towards a breakup, but likewise, you could just be worrying too much. This is natural. We all want our relationships to thrive instead of taking a nose dive. However, if you feel this unwanted worry filling your senses, then maybe you should take a look at these seven signs youโ€™re headed towards a breakup.

Constant Fighting

Arguments can be healthy for a relationship. You want to openly express when you feel your partner has wronged you so that you can move passed the issue and better the relationship. Thereโ€™s a fine difference between working on issues and looking for a reason to argue, though. If his breathing, chewing, or simply existing bothers you then it is a good sign you are no longer happy with your partner. You may experience this same animosity from them. This constant fighting is an indication that you both may need to take some space from each other.

Lack of Intimacy

Sex is great. It actually brings us closer to our lover and builds on a deeper connection. Our bodies let out many different hormones when we touch the one, we admire. These hormones signal love and affection towards a specific individual. When there is no intimacy in a relationship, then itโ€™s a sign that we arenโ€™t having those feelings for them anymore. Our bodies no longer feel the need to be close to that person or share in those intimate moments that signal those exceptional feelings. You may both just be in a time where itโ€™s difficult to be together as much as youโ€™d like, but if when youโ€™re alone thereโ€™s still no urges; it may be over.

Youโ€™re Overly Intrigued by Others

Even those in committed, faithful relationships will notice an attractive person. This is usually a fleeting glance or a vague thought of their looks. Thatโ€™s it. Then the moment is gone, and they continue on with their lives as if theyโ€™ve never seen that person. You know youโ€™re in trouble when it goes beyond this. If someone at work has caught your eye and you find yourself hung up on the moment, then itโ€™s a sign your attention is being pulled elsewhere. You may not even have a particular person in mind. If your morning routine seems to be going the extra mile it could be another sign that you are looking for more.

Daydreaming of Better Days

Being present is a good indication that youโ€™re happy. You focus on the things your lover did that day or even last week. However, if you find yourself constantly fantasizing about those days when you first met then you may have a problem. Looking back on the past is an indication that you feel things arenโ€™t what they used to be. Youโ€™re hung up on how happy you were back then and frankly how happy you arenโ€™t now. It can be hard to stomach that your relationship is heading down a hole, but these things happen. It could mean the end, but it could also mean you just need to put forth the same effort you did at the beginning.c

You Donโ€™t Really Care

Mustering up effort can be hard, especially when you donโ€™t care. It doesnโ€™t matter that youโ€™re not intimate, you donโ€™t care if thereโ€™s another fight, and you donโ€™t care where heโ€™s going. Youโ€™ve simply given up. If you find your relationship is no longer worthy of your time, then you know things are not going to have a glorious end. A lack of desire to better your situation, especially when itโ€™s from both ends, is a way to know your relationship will soon be over.

Trust is Non-Existent

Trust is such an important part of a relationship. Itโ€™s the fundamental backbone of our love and what makes us feel good about the person weโ€™re with. If you find that you donโ€™t trust a word that comes out of your loverโ€™s mouth, then you know you arenโ€™t happy. Your love has met a point where you just canโ€™t trust them in any situation and you know it canโ€™t go on this way.

You Feel Better When Heโ€™s Not There

Probably the biggest sign that your relationship will soon be non-existent is when youโ€™re happier with him not around. Itโ€™s almost as if your mind and body are preparing themselves for the lack of his company. Often, we experience a longing when our partner leaves and excitement when we know they are on their way home. If you feel the opposite, then you just arenโ€™t that into them anymore. Life is short. Donโ€™t let yourself be dragged down by being with someone who just doesnโ€™t bring out your inner happiness.
