Ever wondered if he was pulling away from you? Here are the signs that something is going on!
Are you confused, lost and desperate to know why does your boyfriend or fiancé suddenly seem so distant? Do you feel that there is something wrong with the relationship? If you are, you're not alone.
Chances are that if you're reading this, you already know something is wrong and you've experienced one of the few signs that a guy will show that he is pulling away.
It is so common, for two people to be moving forward in a direction together and suddenly, momentum is lost, the spark fades, things change and you know not why. These are the signs that he feels there is something wrong and is pulling away.
1: Communicating with you suddenly seems to be a chore for him
Early on in the relationship, you guys used to text and email all the time, finding a few minutes to spare for a quick call and updating each other on your day. There were sweet comments, sexual innuendos and plans to get together were always made and followed through. Suddenly, communication gets cut. Texts and emails go unanswered, and he usually sends you a message saying he is busy with work or some personal project. He doesn't pick up your calls and arranging a meeting is like trying to climb mount Everest with nothing but a can of tuna and a tub of toothpicks.
2: Meetings seem awkward or forced
He finally seems to have a weekend free but there are no concrete plans. You guys meet with no clear agenda in mind and maybe share a drink or a moment of sexual intimacy and then he leaves without saying much. He says he can't stay because he has to get up early the next day and doesn't reply when you say its a Saturday night. The times you two spent having a home cooked meal together and watching silly movies seem to be so distant.
3: His eyes, tone and gestures change dramatically
He used to be so caring, so tender, sharing his feelings and plans of a future that included you. The way he held your hand and put his arm around you conveyed a sense of security, warmth and intimacy. The way you felt when you were around him was just warm and fuzzy. Now he is curt and speaks like he was narrating a sermon, his eyes have lost their sparkle and he rarely touches you outside of sex.
4: His friends and family no longer contact you as much
His friends became your friends and his family treated you like one of them but the last time you hung out with his friends, it was awkward. Muted glances, awkward eye contact and an uneasiness you just couldn't place. Invitations to family events or nights out to the bar have all but disappeared and you wonder if he still knows you exist.
If any of these things are happening, you should know something is up. Watch out for the signs and you can be better prepared if he decides to do anything drastic.
