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 youโre 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. Thereโs 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 itโs a sign that we arenโt 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 itโs difficult to be together as much as youโd like, but if when youโre alone thereโs still no urges; it may be over.
Youโre 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. Thatโs it. Then the moment is gone, and they continue on with their lives as if theyโve never seen that person. You know youโre 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 itโs 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 youโre 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 arenโt what they used to be. Youโre hung up on how happy you were back then and frankly how happy you arenโt 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 Donโt Really Care
Mustering up effort can be hard, especially when you donโt care. It doesnโt matter that youโre not intimate, you donโt care if thereโs another fight, and you donโt care where heโs going. Youโve 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 itโs 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. Itโs the fundamental backbone of our love and what makes us feel good about the person weโre with. If you find that you donโt trust a word that comes out of your loverโs mouth, then you know you arenโt happy. Your love has met a point where you just canโt trust them in any situation and you know it canโt go on this way.
You Feel Better When Heโs Not There
Probably the biggest sign that your relationship will soon be non-existent is when youโre happier with him not around. Itโs 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 arenโt that into them anymore. Life is short. Donโt let yourself be dragged down by being with someone who just doesnโt bring out your inner happiness.
