What do Trad Wives, victims of frontal lobotomies and a woman who’s going to leave you soon all have in common?

I’m going to tell you the answer, what this terminal relationship symptom is – and not to be a bitch but because it could save your relationship.

But before I tell you what it is, let’s establish what your relationship is, a partnership that especially during child rearing years majorly revolves around problem solving. Your kinda are like business partners, only instead of a company you’re running a home. And you fck.

So you know how your wife nags? Or wants to “talk things through” or go on and on.. sometimes it’s like you can’t avoid an argument… yeah?

Well that’s not the sign.

You see I’ve noticed that before my friends leave their partners and I’ve done this myself too.. They stop all that.

A woman whose heart has left the relationship is probably easier -for the man who’s been ignoring her to live with. If she’s asked you to put oil in her car and you haven’t, she’ll just call her dad. If your a nightmare when your drunk but you get drunk anyway, she’ll just grab the kids and stay somewhere else. If you accidentally sent her a message meant for your affair, she’ll pretend she didn’t clock it.

In other words – what the Trad wives, victims of frontal lobotomies and the woman who’s going to break your heart have in common is..

None of them will argue with you.

Arguing is a sign of still being connected. You don’t debate or persuade or persist with an ex or someone you’ll never see again.

You do it with your partner, to show him what it’s like for you, with the hope he actually cares or sees how his actions are holding her back or puts oil in the car.

But unfortunately some men choose to not listen, not care. Say they’ll do it but don’t- over and over again, until they snap at her she’s nagging.

Unfortunately these are the same men who won’t even notice when the most deadly symptom for their relationship irises and she stops problem solving with him.
I mean why wouldn’t she? If the love and plans for the future are dying, then in the wise words of the Cranberries

-There’s no need to argue anymore-
