Usually, the image that we have for a person and we want that person to look at is more attractive than the one showing who that person really is.
There are several signs that you should pay attention to, and when you notice any of the ones listed below, you should know it’s time to continue on your path.
1. Having their guard up
Emotional intimacy is one thing that should undoubtedly increase as your relationship grows. If you or your partner are afraid to open up, there is actually no place for some honesty in your relationship.
2. Not addressing mistakes done in the past
Maybe your partner cheated on you, and some things were still unresolved. They have never disclosed the reason for their infidelity, leaving many aspects of the relationship unclear.
3. Left unresolved issues
You have unresolved problems. Instead of being so, they are actually put under some rug until all the tension goes away. Actually, there are a lot of things that can be done before boiling up your feelings to the outside, but you will just harbor ill feelings on the way.
4. Being curious about living your life without your partner
Perhaps you are wondering about how your life would have looked like when, for example, you gave your chance to someone else. Maybe you also caught yourself while you imagined what would happen if your partner was not there.
5. Destroying the relationship
For months, things were just not moving, and your relationship withered. As some research suggests, relationships appear in two dimensions: scarring and growing. When a relationship continuously scars and is not developing properly, the scarring on an emotional level will probably destroy the relationship.
6. Contempt or some other toxic behavior
In such a case, you have your relationship filled with some toxic conduct—even some minor, like mocking or rolling eyes. Some other poisonous behaviors actually include defensiveness, criticism, and stonewalling about what your partner has and wants to say.
7. Calls from your gut
Actually, regardless of how hard you are trying to shrug all those things off, there will be something that will always feel off. However, you have to listen to the voices coming from inside, as they may know certain things.
8. Mistreated and misread
When a relationship is progressing, a lot of individuals forget to put in some more effort in order to make the things last longer. They jump to some conclusions or point fingers, and they forget about the importance of their partner. Such situations can usually lead the partners to add fuel to the fire instead of trying to stop that fire between them.
