How to Know If Your Relationship is Over - Is Your Man Showing These Signs?

Here are 7 giveaway signs that your man is probably going to say goodbye to you soon. Do they sound really familiar in your relationship?

1) The communication between both of you breaks down or become awkward

He seems to call less frequently than before and each conversation becomes shorter and punctuated with monosyllabic words. He seldom joke with you or share intimate details about his life anymore. When he meets you on a date, he seems more interested in punching messages on his mobile or playing games on his PSP. Things gradually become cold and awkward as you find it difficult to talk to him anymore.

2) You are never included in his activities anymore

Previously, he may ask you to go along when he goes to the matches with his buddies. He may bring you to party invitations as a couple. Now he prefers to go without you. He also refers to "I" more often than "we" when he is making his plans. Isn't it plain obvious how much he wants his life back as a single again?

3) Everything you do just turns him off

You just can't do anything right in front of him. He shows you looks of disgust and irritation at everything you do and everything you say. He provokes you and makes you angry purposely most of the time. He may also demean you and people around you, like your friends.

4) There is no intimacy anymore

He stops being lovey-dovey to you over time. All the displays of affection like kissing, hugging, cuddling, etc, disappears. The previous connection you feel so strongly is just not there anymore.

5) He shuns the topic whenever it is regarding future plans

You ask him to go along with you to your friend's wedding next month and he mumbles an excuse that he may have something on. He can't even promise you a day he is free in the coming weekend. He may be trying to cut down contact with you slowly, hoping you will give up yourself.

6) He totally "forgets" your birthday or other important dates

Enough said about this. After celebrating your birthday last year, how could he have forgotten this time? Even if he is very busy at work, a phone call to wish you "happy birthday" will not take too much time?

7) He does not look at you direct in the eye when talking to you

This could mean two things:

a) everything else is more interesting and attractive than you, or
b) he could probably have something to hide from you.

This is negative body language and doesn't bode well for a relationship. If you find these signs in your existing relationship, maybe it's time to move on even if your guy has not asked you to. Rather than doing the nasty work of ending the relationship, some men hope the woman will initiate the break up themselves, saving them from being labelled as the bad guy.

Women on the other hand, sometimes hang on to the relationship, hoping to make things better and trying harder to please their men. If your guy is behaving this way because he is going through a rough patch due to work or so, probably it's a temporary phase of his emotions and the relationship may be still worth salvaging. But if he is cheating on you, and expects you to pull the plug and exit yourself, there is no point in staying longer and hoping he will change his mind.
