Stop a Love Break Up -- Learn the Signs to Prevent a Love Break Up

All of us know how painful it is to have your love break up on you. And what makes it more painful, when you look back after the relationship has ended, I bet you can see all the signs of a break up that you couldn't see or recognize at the time.

So if you remember those signs and remain aware when you see them again, you can immediately take steps to prevent a break up in the future. Knowing these signs can also help you reconnect after a split.

• Lack of physical contact

One true indication of an impending love break up is the lack of physical contact. I don't just mean sex. If your partner suddenly looses interest in sex, it's true that a break up could be coming. However, a relationship's normal flow and rhythm includes time filled with lots of sex and times when the togetherness slows down. This is natural.

• Fading desire for physical contact

Prepare for a love break up if your partner's affection seems to fade and he/she shows it by no longer wanting to hold your hand. The same is true for when he/she no longer puts an arm across your shoulders when you're walking together or at the movies like he/she always did before.
Any sudden changes, such as the lack of desire for contact outside the bedroom at times when your partner was always very affectionate, could signal problems

If you see it going beyond a lack of touching to your partner actually becoming uncomfortable when your touch him/her, then you must have a conversation with your partner to determine what’s going on.

• Don't take it all personally

But, don’t assume just because your partner moves away from your touch that you're about to experience a love break up. A person might not want to be touched at any particular moment due to many different reasons.

He/she might be concentrating on something and is surprised or startled by your touch. Also if you’re not very affectionate except when you want to be intimate, he/she might connect your touch with your desire to have sex. If your partner isn’t in the mood, he/she could be expressing their feelings by moving away from you. That doesn’t mean a love break up is in the cards.

Your partner just might not feel good physically. Every small change in a person’s behavior doesn’t imply a possible love break up or even a relationship problem. You must become familiar with your partner's actions to determine if certain behaviors are occasional and only takes place at certain times for very specific reasons, or if they're a permanent part of their make up.

• Watch out for lies

If you know your partner is telling lies, even if these lies appear small and harmless, this also could be a sign of problems. If a lie is small and harmless, why must a person tell it at all?

When one tiny lie is told, there's a chance that larger, damaging lies will follow. But don’t be alarmed that such lies signal an imminent love break up. People tell lies about many things that aren’t necessarily bad, such as being evasive about a surprise party or surprise gift. Your partner might be hiding a harmless and enjoyable secret, and not at all considering a love break up.
