I don't want to make a flippant comment in case it's in poor taste. Is this something you are worried about?

Hi Tink.

Hope all is okay? ((hugs))

In answer, I don't know. I find it hard to really understand if someone is *into* me, so I don't know how I'd be at computing that then going once I'd accepted it.

Communication becomes perfunctory. That's the first and most telling sign. As to what you can do about it, or whether you even should, that's tricky. If it is down to waning interest then it's a fine line between desparation and knowing when to give up gracefully. Or a balancing act of maintaining composure if the waning is temporary or due to external factors.

For me - when they start talking about someone else a lot, and you go from nonstop talking* to no replies. I've been in that position before on here and it sucked.

I'd say gut feeling too. I got the feeling for a while and talked myself out of it, thinking I was crazy. Turned out I was right all along

If you are going through anything like that, I'd suggest having an honest talk with whoever it is sooner rather than later. Wish I'd done that.

I don't really know about any set signs as such. Last time it was just a feeling, I opened up about it and was right sadly. I think if it's a thought in your head now, there must be a reason for it - even if you discuss it and find it to be unfounded that's better than ignoring it. Just try and remain composed and discuss it in a rational way as possible.

Well that's what I did. I think only you will know what you deel comfortable with in the end Tink. Best of luck whatever it is you decide to do, x

Sometimes familiarity breeds contempt u stay with each other fr too long and suddenly the tiny cute things that made them unique become the reason u want to kill them.

A sexy lady like u if he's not interested ure sure to know lack of contact, lack of communication (this one is very important). Cld also have nothing to do with u but rather a worry he might have.

Best thing to do is communication ask it straight out best thing me and hubby ever done is talked it out without holding anything back it cld have Meade or broken us but thankfully it made us and we're a lot stronger fr it.

Hope all is good with u and good luck with whatever u decide to do xx

Some of these applied to me when my wife and I divorced. It started with the drop in communication and going from doing things together to wanting to do things alone.

He could be having a shit time in his personal life and has mental health issues, and I've noticed that men clam up about those things, but after you've known someone for a while you kinda see how their moods ebb and flow, and when they just need time for themselves.

But if it's come out of no where... if he really wants to talk he'd make time and effort to do so.

Its a horrible and lonely feeling. Depending on how new the relationship is then it can be a bit of a quandary.

Does asking make you seem clingy? Does he want space because he has the same fears?

If it was me I'd stop trying and see what happens, then discuss openly after a couple of days.

Communication is key to strongest relationships, regardless of what type they are.

Good luck x

Relationship distancing typically starts with secrets - they may just be secret thought processes but could become behavioural.

This isn't gender specific but someone can somehow engage a part of themselves that becomes secret and thus is disengaged from their partner. Over time it may realise a fantasy of what they want, realisations that what they have isn't potentially right for them and what they may do about it. It may also be somewhat of a crisis for them, if their lover - possibly their normal confidante, isn't entrusted with this personal secret. So it may also trouble them, they'll potentially be transgressing their moral code of not being fully open.

An inner secret stash helps someone become more distant, as they're not fully with you at any point - they're with you in part.

This is my take on things.

What can help undermine such troubles is openness and communication that's not forced but supports someone to share more of themselves again.

An ongoing habit of keeping something hidden isn't a good thing as it can spiral more into something bigger. It may help engender someone spending more time alone, where they can cultivate their space and try to gain more comfort with being this way and understanding things and themselves better.

Falling out of love reverses many of the processes that we've gone through to be there in the first place. We can incrementally do this, piece by piece. And someone would start to chip away at their identity that's a coupled identity, reestablishing their own as an individual. you could see new pursuits explored or old patterns reengaged with.

Some food for thought.

I hope you're ok Tink, as it would potentially be upsetting for me and I'd hope you're not getting there.

It doesn't matter wether it is there or not. By asking the question you're already admitting you feel that way, which means you now need to decide wether you want to talk it out and try and put it right or walk away depending on your relationship and situation.

One thing is for certain though... don't put up with feeling that way these things generally never turn themselves around, you will just prolong your own unhappiness.

Whatever you do we wish you the very best of luck and happiness in the future. Xxxx

I've not read the whole thread but I'd say the first thing to do is to try and find out what the issue actually is.

Distance, lack of sex etc. can mean another person in their life but it can also mean a problem or issue that they are afraid to tell you about.

Not because you'll freak out, but because they have it in their head that you'll see them as less of a man for having this 'problem'.

And if they go distant and then we go worried, they think we're acting weird and the whole thing can spiral out of proportion.

If there is another person or a lack of love then all I can say from experience is that it's better to know and be on your own than with the wrong person.

"From experience:

The kiss becomes a peck;

Talking about the person they have moved on to;

Significant drop in communication;

Scrabble instead of sex;

Comments about my size - as if I hadn't always been this short or fat and it is sudden revelation.

Some of these applied to me when my wife and I divorced. It started with the drop in communication and going from doing things together to wanting to do things alone. And as for the declining sex, she insisted we sleep in separate rooms at one point due to my apparent snoring. And the comments about physical appearance made an appearance too... In fact, are you my ex-wife, by any chance?

I can guarantee that I am no one's ex wife. No one has ever been that in to me to marry me.

Aw bless. Shall we marry? We can divorce tomorrow

A marriage proposal with a rejection already built in. Typical.

"

That's not rejection. That's progress.

I'm not known for lasting long

"Hi Tink.

Hope all is okay? ((hugs))

In answer, I don't know. I find it hard to really understand if someone is *into* me, so I don't know how I'd be at computing that then going once I'd accepted it.

Thanks I am fine I guess I am just confused by how people can change "

people usually show their true self when they feel comfortable to do so, but can keep an act up for quite some time beforehand.

sucks how they mess with your head that way but they know if they showed their true self they would not be as attractive initially and you wouldn't invest yourself in them.

Yes, that's a good point, it can be a deception to start with. I would want to talk about what's going on with them, and if they won't be open about it I lose interest myself normally.

This. If I can't be number one, with my partner, I won't be number 2!

"Ladies and gents

What are the signs that your husband, boyfriend, lover, FB, Fwb just isn't that interested or into you anymore?

What do you do?"

Surely what you do next depends on if the person you are talking about is either your husband / boyfriend or more casual lover / FB / FWB...?!

I would think the signs / response would be different depending on how serious the relationship is.

Hate that feeling. Really knocks the shit back up into your stomach.

Was having a great day yesterday and then someone today kind of knocked the confidence a wee bit and feel I've went back into my quiet shell.

I guess when you start to ask the question then the signs are already there

If you're uncertain, it may be that -

you're picking up their signals

you're hoping they are, as you've gone off them

you've got self-belief issues

There's a long list but there's a starter portion. Read my post from when this was originally posted too.

Its a horrible feeling esp when u put alot of effort in to receive absolutely nothing in return.

U ask the question but they just won't give u an answer. Ur kept dangling constantly knowing that ur not good enough.

Thats how i'm feeling atm.

Little bit of attention is always nice. Its not hard to give if still interested in someone.

Trust your gut feeling.when the txts and calls get less and less they more than likely talking/meeting someone else esp when u used to talk 20 times a day,when they makes excuses why they can't see u, and u know they lieing

At the end of the day u make time for the ppl u want to spend time wiv no matter how busy u are

Did you figure it out in ten wks op? You should know if he's I to you by now. I normally figure it out quicker than that, and I'm pretty hopeless.
