In a long term relationship, it is healthy at times to give your partner a break especially when you start to lose the sparkle in the relationship.
Backing off for a while would always be helpful in the long run.
Here are ways to give your partner space without the fear of losing him.
1. Stop stalking his social media
Do not be checking the pictures he liked and the comments he makes on Instagram and Facebook profiles.
Give him some space. Do not over analyze the photos he posts with someone else on social media. Always trust your partner and let them be free for a while.
2. Avoid interrogating him.
Do not ask him why he is no longer talking to you, or why is behaviour has changed abruptly.
Always know that he knows what he is doing and asking questions would make it take another turn. Respect his personal privacy and just let him explain everything when he’s ready.
3. Do not chase after him.
Tracking him down, trying to capture his attention would only prove that your desperate and be fine by yourself for a little while. Chasing him would even make him not come back and might even push them further away.
Always be positive that things would be fine soon.
