So You Want to Save Your Relationship? Here Are the Things You Must Work on Right Now
In believing this, they fail to recognize the first signs of a failing relationship.
Reading the sign is actually the first step to saving any relationship.
You can discover any action to be done to redeem a dying flame just by reading the signs.
Here are the most common ones: Finding pleasure in being alone or with other people but not your partner Suddenly you notice that you or your partner is meeting new people, or spending a lot of time with friends.
You may also notice that there are a bunch of new people that he or she knows, but hasn't introduced to you (when he or she had always done so before).
You may feel like the house is better and more peaceful when it's just you.
Discovering a diversion - movies, TV, Facebook, Twitter, work In the past, one of you would always call during lunch to say, "Hi, I love you".
Then, it was reduced to "Hey, what're you doing?" Then, "Hey, I'm calling to remind you to pick up the dry-cleaning.
" Then, no more lunchtime phone calls.
And it's not because you're both busy, but because you, or he/she just doesn't feel like it.
Running out of things to talk about and awkward silence filling the room every time You may have been the best conversation partners in the past - you could talk about anything at all.
But now, your pillow talks have turned cold, or you simply don't' have the will to engage in a gab fest about anything.
He or she opens a conversation and you're only capable of mumbling a few responses.
Or, you're in the mood to talk, but he/she gives you one word answers.
Bickering, bickering about an ant in the wall and about other minuscule matters Are you suddenly experiencing a lot of unfriendly banter? It could be about things that did not matter before - who left the fridge open? Why is there no more milk? Really simple things that seemed unimportant and which used to be funny too, before, now make you or your partner sick with anger.
Losing intimacy and simply not "feeling it" Is one of you going to bed alone at night? When one of you reaches out from under the cover, the other squirms and pretends to be in deep slumber? Does one of you prefer sleeping on the couch, pretending to have fallen asleep from watching TV? Being extra irritable and moody - even when it's not that time of the month It's not PMS, especially when guys are getting it.
You're suddenly very moody, and can't explain why.
Or he/she is just so irritable and projects anger into non-living things like slamming the door, kicking a pot, and such.
Avoiding eye contact and being uncomfortable holding hands When you're put at a mall, does he still put an arm around you? Or, does she choose to walk ahead like you aren't even there? When you hold their hand, do they gently but awkwardly pull away?
