How Do I Know If My Relationship Is Over - 5 Subtle Signs

If you don't feel like you and your partner are on the same page anymore, it is probably time to consider ending the relationship. Here are the signs that your relationship is over and what to do about it.

1. You're constantly irritated by your partner.
When you're constantly surrounded by someone, it's easy to target your frustrations onto them. Your partner in a healthy relationship is there to support you through the difficult times. In a terrible one, on the other hand, you don't communicate adequately and a lot is left unsaid.

2. You hate the notion of them touching you.
In every relationship, there will be ups and downs in terms of sexual attraction. Also, the honeymoon isn't everlasting, so you won't be flinging yourselves at each other all the time. When the intensity fades, what remains are close friendships and an enduring bond.

It's also common to fantasize about other people. But if you do it all the time and get a rash when you think of your real spouse, that's a negative indicator.

3. You begin to despise their habits.
Everything appears to be ideal at the start of a relationship. You're more willing to give them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to their actions, and all of their quirks appear cute and lovable.

When you go back a few months or years, such minor eccentricities may appear excruciatingly irritating. If you can't bear the way your partner chews their food, clicks their fingers, or does anything else,  it's probably more about you than them.

4. Disputes are becoming more heated.
Every relationship has a quarrel. In fact, if done correctly, it can be the healthiest method to address a problem. So having a fight now and again isn't a sign you're not right for each other.

Minor squabbles, on the other hand, that always escalate into screaming bouts are unhealthy. And if you're constantly bringing up the past or attempting to harm each other, you're not moving forward — you're driving each other away.

5. The Relationship feels stagnant
Nobody wants to be in a relationship that looks to have reached a stalemate. If you believe your partner is attempting to change for the better, give them some space to do so. However, if they listen to your concerns but then reject them rather than interacting with you, this is a red flag.

Sometimes we need to offer a deadline to a potential long-term partner. While flexibility is necessary to handle real-world concerns, if a partner can't agree on a fair schedule for taking the relationship to the next level, it could be best to abandon it totally than than leave it inactive."\
