5. You’re leading separate lives.
Do you go to bed at separate times? Watch TV in different rooms? Go out with your friends without each other? If so, you’re lacking in intimacy, and not just the physical kind. “Intimacy is a strongly knit personal bond that exists in the bedroom and beyond, and it affects nearly every aspect of our lives,” says Ginnie Love, PhD, a psychotherapist in private practice in South Florida.
The more you isolate yourself from one another, the more you will feel a sense of disconnection. Love suggests taking the time to have a monthly check-in with your partner to purposely reconnect and establish a balance of where you are in your relationship and in life. “It’s vital to take the time to set goals and develop action plans as a couple for your emotional lives just as you would planning a vacation or purchasing a house,” says Love.
Choosing to spend time with your partner instead of isolating yourself will go a long way in deepening your intimacy and communication with your partner—and preventing the end of your relationship.
