Subtle Signs Your Partner Is Unhappy In Your Relationship
They are emotionally distant
If your partner has suddenly become emotionally distant and withdrawn, this could be a sign that they are unhappy in the relationship.
This may manifest as avoiding spending time with you, becoming less affectionate towards you, or having fewer conversations with you about your relationship.
They no longer seem interested in your hobbies or interests
If your partner used to be excited about trying out new activities with you, but now seems disengaged and uninterested, this could be a sign that they are unhappy in the relationship.
Pay attention to whether your partner seems generally unenthusiastic about things you do together, or seems apathetic and disinterested when you mention your hobbies.
They start spending more time with friends or other people
If your partner is suddenly spending more time with friends or other people, it’s possible that they have lost interest in the relationship and are seeking companionship elsewhere.
Look out for signs that your partner is gradually distancing themselves from you and spending more time with other people in their social circle.
They have become more critical or negative
If your partner has started making more critical or negative comments about you, your relationship, or your life in general, this is a major red flag.
If your partner is unhappy in the relationship, it’s likely that they will start expressing their dissatisfaction and resentment in some way. Pay attention to the tone of their comments, and whether they have become more critical or negative overall.
They have lost interest in sex
If your partner has suddenly stopped being interested in sex, or seems less engaged and enthusiastic about it, this could be a sign that they are unhappy.
They seem less invested in the future of the relationship
If your partner has started talking about “what’s next” and their plans for the future, but seems less invested in the future of your relationship, this could be a sign that they are unhappy and considering leaving.
