There comes a point in a relationship when the fire seems to be off and our better half no-longer cares about anything regarding us.

This sucks and calls for quick solutions, failure to which we might end up with heart pains which might take years to cool but never cure.

This is how to handle a partner who seems to be letting go;

1. Do not be overly responsible

Do not do things that might portray you as the offender as the situation might not be your fault at all. Going out of your way to impress them will only bring you out as weak and might push them further away.

2. Ask direct questions and seek clarity 

Face them and gently seek answers on why they appear to be distant and no longer care. Do not try to forcefully extract answers and explanations as this could further worsen the situation.

3. Try reigniting the flame

On most occasions they are just going through some rough situation, are bored or you are simply not performing according to their expectations. This is the time to bring in some new excitement and freshness to save the relationship from fading.

4. Uphold your worth

Do not allow yourself to be mistreated as it might only encourage them to proceed, believing that you are too attached. Stick to your principles.

5. Prepare for the worst

When someone who once said they love you begins behaving this way then the next thing might be them breaking up with you. Therefore, prepare to move on in case of that.
