Every romantic relationship goes through a honeymoon phase, and it’s truly amazing — kind of like a modern fairy tale. You spend a lot of time together, you rarely leave your bed, and everything points towards a successful relationship.

However, if the way your partner acts towards you starts changing, that long-lasting relationship you have wished for might be coming to an end.

1. He Starts To Ignore Your Texts

You used to be so close that you texted all the time — you were the first person he thought about whenever something funny happened, and he always wanted to share it with you. But now you text him, and you don’t get an answer for hours.

Sometimes, you don’t get an answer at all. Well, one of the reasons he ignores you might have to do with the fact that your partner is tired of you.

2. Doesn’t Want To Do Anything With You Anymore

If you are in a long-term relationship, you have already figured out how to best manage your time, so you can enjoy life as a couple, but also spend time with your friends, family, or even all by yourself.

You don’t always have to be together, even if you are in a serious relationship. On the contrary, spending time with only each other is also a relationship issue.

3. Wants To Starts A Fight About Anything

Everyone experiences relationship problems — even the people who live in a happily, balanced relationship will engage in arguments now and then. But if your boyfriend starts fighting with you about every little thing, this might be a sign he is getting tired of the relationship, and his fuse is now shorter than ever.

It is also a mechanism to justify a sudden break-up. They ignite a lot of fights so they can end things by saying something generic like “I don’t think this is going to work, we have been fighting a lot lately” — and if you are (un)lucky enough, he might even throw some gaslighting into the mix and make you think it’s your fault. Pay attention to toxic behaviors and predict their next move.

4. He Threatens & Insist To Break Up With You

You keep having multiple fight7. Being Together Feels Weird

At first, you seemed to never be able to shut up, you made all sorts of plans together, and you couldn’t wait to spend some more time with each other.

Now, there is a lot of awkward silence, you never know where to go, and he seems to dread your dates… Maybe the flame has been extinguished, and it’s time to move on.s, and at the end of every fight, he says something like, “so what, do you want to end things?”.

This isn’t just a simple threat, but more of a suggestion, and if it keeps popping up in every fight you two have, he is putting it out there for a reason — maybe trying to see if you agree with him so that he can leave without any blame, perhaps?

5. Different/Weird Feelings When Together

At first, you seemed to never be able to shut up, you made all sorts of plans together, and you couldn’t wait to spend some more time with each other.

Now, there is a lot of awkward silence, you never know where to go, and he seems to dread your dates… Maybe the flame has been extinguished, and it’s time to move on.

6. He Refuses To Wanna Get Married

This behavior becomes even more suspicious if you have been to weddings together and you had your fun — and now he doesn’t want to go to weddings, or appears to be bitter about being your plus one.

Maybe he feels trapped, and perhaps the idea of going to someone else’s wedding makes him feel even more trapped. But again, this is something that should be discussed between you two — so a passive-aggressive statement, like letting you know they don’t want to go to a wedding with you “just because” is also a sign that something is deeply wrong.

7. Does Not Include Family

He never takes you around his family during special occasions. During the holidays he refuses to go with your family or take you around his family members.

Whenever their is family gatherings he doesn’t include you. During family gatherings he goes by himself.

If any kids are involved he doesn’t include them as a part of your relationship.

If you feel any of these signs. It’ time to stop and re-evaluate your relationship. Have strong communication skills and talk about the situation. Share your true feelings about how you feel. Mention what you notice. Take some action.
