Family relationships are like a fragile mechanism, where every detail plays an important role. When one part starts to fail, the whole mechanism risks stopping.
Careful observation of changes in your spouse's behavior will help you notice signs of an impending crisis in time.
Changes in communication
Conversations become more superficial and rare.
The man avoids discussing the future, family plans and joint projects. Communication is limited to solving everyday issues or stops altogether.
Emotional distance
The spouse stops sharing his experiences, problems at work, plans.
The desire to spend time together disappears, there is no interest in events in the partner’s life.
Financial behavior
Unexplained expenses, separate accounts or cards appear. A man may start saving money or, on the contrary, spend more than usual on personal needs.
Changing Habits
A sudden change in daily routine, the emergence of new hobbies that he does not want to share. Frequent delays at work or sudden business trips can signal preparation for changes.
Attitude towards spouse
Irritability gives way to indifference. The desire to help around the house and participate in family affairs disappears. Criticism of the spouse becomes more frequent and harsh.
External changes
Increased attention to one's own appearance, change of clothing style, new hairstyle. The emergence of sports hobbies or diets may indicate a desire to start a new life.
Estrangement from family
The man participates less and less in family events, avoids weekends and holidays together. Communication with his wife's relatives is reduced to a minimum.
Change of plans
Refusal to make long-term plans together, such as renovating or buying a property. Reluctance to plan joint vacations or family events.
Behavior in conflicts
Lack of desire to resolve conflicts or find compromises.
Indifference to quarrels or, on the contrary, provoking conflicts out of thin air.
Social changes
Expanding your social circle without including your spouse, making new friends.
Social media activity may change: either it increases or the profile becomes more private.
