When marriage transitions from the sweetness of passionate love to simplicity, some changes are like boiling a frog in warm water, and it's often too late to realize the burn. Those overlooked small signals may be quietly undermining the foundation of your relationship.

1. The communication mode has undergone a qualitative change
1. The desire to share has plummeted
In the past, even when encountering strange clouds on the roadside, people had to take photos to share, but now they are too lazy to even report important schedules. When 'have you eaten' becomes the only conversation and there is less physical contact than verbal communication, it indicates that emotional connections are loosening.
2. Avoid in-depth topics
When discussing future plans, always use the excuse of "let's talk" and change the topic when emotional needs are mentioned. This defensive communication is like adding a silencer to a relationship, appearing calm on the surface but actually having turbulent undercurrents.
2. Exposure of behavioral details and psychological distance
1. Body language becomes distant
When walking side by side, the distance widens, and there is always a pillow on the sofa. These unconscious physical resistance are more intense than arguments Fate. Research has found that when a marital relationship deteriorates, both parties instinctively maintain a distance of at least 1.2 meters.
2. Social media account abnormality
Suddenly reset all passwords, regularly clear chat records, and even intentionally tilt the phone screen to watch short videos. This excessive protection is like withdrawing money in advance from an emotional bank, which will eventually overdraw the trust limit.
3. Emotional investment continues to decline
1. Anniversary has become a task list
Gifts have changed from carefully selected to takeaway flowers, and celebration methods have degenerated from surprise planning to simply transferring money. When the sense of ceremony degenerates into formalism, it is like tying plastic flowers to a withered tree, no matter how bright it is, it cannot conceal the loss of vitality.
2. Significant decrease in empathy
When you are sick, he cares more about meeting materials, and when you confide in him about your troubles, he only replies to emojis. This emotional absence can create a vicious cycle, ultimately turning even arguments into luxury.
4. Deliberately avoiding future planning
1. Avoiding long-term commitments
When it comes to changing houses/traveling/having children, it is vague and refuses to change with the phrase "it's good now". It's like starting a company in partnership but refusing to sign a contract, which could lead to withdrawal of investment and departure at any time.
2. Financial boundaries become clearer
Suddenly insisting on the AA system, no longer discussing large expenditures, and even being too lazy to check common accounts. Economic separation is often a leading indicator of emotional separation.
5. Zero motivation for self change
1. Refuse to make efforts to maintain relationships
Disgusts marriage counseling and even finds emotional books pretentious. It's like letting the garden grow overgrown with weeds and blaming the flowers for not being bright enough.
2. Completely give up image management
Always wear tattered pajamas at home, never shave beard for three days, and don't bother to change perfume after expiration. When he/she no longer maintains attraction for you, he/she may have already "left work" psychologically. Marriage is never a permanent policy of security, it requires continuous recharge of emotional currency. When you discover these signals, instead of dwelling on whether he loves me or not, it's better to think about whether I still love this kind of relationship. A healthy relationship should be like a heater in winter, where you don't need to constantly stare at flames, but you can always feel the temperature.
