Marriage is like a garden nurtured by two people, requiring constant watering and fertilization. When gardeners start to slack off, it is often the most delicate flowers that wither first. Some changes may seem insignificant, but they can be signals of a rift in the relationship.
1. A qualitative change in communication mode
1. A sharp decrease in the number of conversations
From sharing interesting things every day to only having necessary life conversations, the decrease in communication volume is a direct manifestation of relationship alienation. Research has found that happy couples have an average of 57 minutes of deep communication every day.
2. Avoiding conflict topics
Intentionally avoiding topics that may cause disputes, superficially harmonious but actually burying hidden dangers. A healthy marriage should be able to accommodate the expression of different opinions.
3. Body Language Alienation
Unconscious physical avoidance, such as reducing eye contact and avoiding physical contact, often reflects psychological distance more accurately than language.
2. Emotional account deficit
1. Gratitude expression disappears
No longer thanking the other person for small things they do, taking their efforts for granted. Gratitude is the lubricant that maintains relationships.
2. Common Future Ambiguization
When planning personal life, the other party is no longer automatically included, such as "I plan" replacing "We consider".
3. Memory filter failure
Recalling the past more often brings up contradictions rather than beauty, which is a manifestation of weakened emotional connections.
3. Gradual Separation of Life Trajectory
1. Misalignment of Daily Schedule
Deliberately arranging different schedules to reduce interaction, even meal times are difficult to synchronize.
2. Completely independent social circle
No longer participate in each other's friend gatherings, develop completely independent social lives for each other.
3. Couples with zero intersection of interests and hobbies
who do not share any common hobbies have a more fragile bond to maintain their relationship.
4. The possibility of repairing the relationship
1. Admitting the existence of the problem
Realizing that the relationship needs adjustment is the first step to improvement, and avoiding it will only exacerbate the problem.
2. Rebuilding Communication Bridges
Starting with 15 minutes of uninterrupted conversations every day, practice active listening skills.
3. Create a shared experience
Regularly arrange activities that both parties are interested in, creating new beautiful memories.
Marriage is in danger Machines rarely happen suddenly, but more often result from accumulated neglect of management over time. When these signs are discovered, instead of worrying about whether to continue, it is better to first think about how to change the status quo. Any relationship requires continuous investment from both parties, and sometimes the turning point lies in sincere communication and heartfelt change.
