7 Signs He Doesn't Care About The Relationship
By: Kratika Sun, 03 Oct 2021 1:50:50
At the beginning of your relationship, things were going really well. Your boyfriend would text you during the day and call you to see how you’re doing. But things slowly changed. Maybe it didn’t happen all at once, but at some moment, you realized that things are off. They’re not the same as they used to be, and you’re experiencing some signs he doesn’t care about the relationship.
You probably haven’t said anything just yet. Right now, you’re keeping your eyes open, and trying to see what’s going on without confronting the issue. And though that’s not a horrible move, it’s not making things easier for you. Don’t you want to know what’s going on?
You eventually need to confront your partner before you feel worse. Not knowing what’s going on in your relationship isn’t fair. He’s not the only one involved. So, you need to make the first step and voice your concerns. Hopefully, he tells you how he truly feels so you can decide your next move.
# You feel something is off
This is an important must in the signs he doesn’t care about the relationship! We all have intuition, and I’m a big advocate of listening to your gut instinct. Most of us ignore our gut instinct because it usually goes against what we want.
But listen, you know if something is off; you feel it. If you think something is wrong in your relationship, then the odds are something is wrong. Don’t doubt your feelings; they’re usually right.
# It’s all your fault
When you talk to him about your feelings or the relationship, he seems to flip the conversation, putting the blame on you. Now, this isn’t to say you’re an angel in the relationship; everyone plays a role.
But, you’re not to blame for everything. If he’s avoiding taking responsibility for his actions, then he doesn’t care about you or the relationship.
# He doesn’t consider your feelings
Whether it’s deciding where to eat or what movie you will watch, he makes all the decisions. It’s not that you don’t have an opinion, you do, and you share it, but he simply ignores what you suggest.
If you’re okay with him calling the shots, then it’s fine. But if he’s making decisions without asking how you feel about it, then that’s not a good sign.
# He dismisses your feelings
Maybe you tried to bring up this conversation before, and if he cared, he would have respectfully listened to you and engaged in a conversation about how you’re feeling.
But, he’s not. Instead, he sighs or walks away from you, uninterested in even touching the subject. Now, that’s not a good sign of a man who cares about the relationship.
# He doesn’t try to get to know you
When you’re in a relationship, it’s normal for couples to have deep conversations to get to know each other. But your boyfriend doesn’t ask anything about you. He’s not curious to know what you’re interested in or what you’re doing in life. Well, you know that’s suspicious, right? If he’s not trying to get to know you, then what is your relationship?
# You two don’t do “coupley” things
It’s normal for couples to go to the movies, eat out at restaurants, or even grab a coffee together. But you don’t really do anything. He may come over to hang out and watch Netflix, and vice versa, but other than that, you don’t go on any dates. If he’s not interested in going out with you, that’s weird. Why wouldn’t he want to go on dates?
# You’re emotionally drained in this relationship
We all have rough patches in our relationships where we’re emotionally exhausted, but this shouldn’t be a continuous feeling. When you’re next to him, you shouldn’t be feeling this constant heaviness and anxiety about the relationship. If you feel this, then it’s a good sign this relationship isn’t for you.
