We all know when a relationship is going downhill, we brace ourselves for the worst and hope things stay intact. There’s no doubt that being shown the door sucks, and it’s even worse when you think that the person you cared about actually thinks he/she is better off without you.
If you have been dumped before, I do not need to go into details about how much that hurt. I remember countless visits to Baskin Robbins, I think I moved into the freezer and stayed there till they had to forcefully send me home.
Today, we’re going to help you figure out those signs that your relationship is headed towards a break up so that when it eventually does happen, it isnt so hard, and you’re prepared.
And although there are a million signs that should alert you, let’s take 3-4 of the easiest ones.
Break-Up Warning #1: Your other half starts distancing themselves physically and emotionally.
The fact that you seem to be getting less time from your partner either way is clearly a warning signal, in most cases. More so, when they start missing your regular “couple” activities. This is easier to distinguish that the emotional distancing. That can be killer. That’s a sure sure “falling out of love” signal. Communication changes, they start avoiding confrontation. Relationship investment just flew out the window. Time for you to retract.
Breakup Warning #2: You notice that their daily routing changes.
I still remember n one of my past relationships, when I realized that the activities the boy and I used to do as a couple, I was then doing it alone. In my head, I figured he had work and was usually busy, until I bumped into him at the skating rink with a bunch of his friends.
Sometimes, the schedule change is genuine, but if it’s constant and they arent apologetic about it, then there is something brewing there. Also watch out for a new group of friends they may have “suddenly” acquired.
Breakup Warning #3: The two of you fight more often than not.
Which relationship doesn’t have fights? Isn’t the making up awesome? Constant fighting can be an issue though. A warning that the end is near. They are trying to push you over the edge so as not to be the one to dump so that they can look like “the good guy.”
Also absolute no fighting can mean that your partner has resolved to not being that emotionally involved in the relationship either! If you try to broach the topic and they quick to withdraw, it shows sign of frustration or uncaring nature towards the relationship.
Breakup Warning #4: Intimacy has dropped to an all-time low
When he stops kissing you goodbye in the mornings, or hardly touches you affectionately anymore, you need to sit up and take stock. Not necessarily are we talking about sex here. That can vary over different periods of time. But if they have stopped making advances altogether, there must be something wrong. Even worse if you initiate it and they push you away making excuses.
So with those 4 points in mind, you’ll be able to see the tiny cracks appear and resolve it before it breaks, else prepare yourself for a separation. Being able to spot them early on ensures that you will know how to handle the situation.
