Are you in a long distance relationship? Are your instincts telling you something is off about your partner? This post is for you! Trust is undoubtedly one of the most important parts of a relationship especially when it comes to maintaining a long-distance relationship; it needs more emotional commitment and trust than a regular one.

If you’re not quite sure that things are 100% rosy in your long distance relationship, here are some signs to clear things up for you

#1. Frequent arguments
Every couple fights once in a while, but you can feel a difference when it is not just a normal one. Frequent arguments, especially on matters that never created problems between you before, should trigger an alert in your mind.

#2. Dramatic changes in communication
You may suddenly find your partner talking to you in an unusual manner. He or she need not be outright rude, but it is the indifference that is actually worse. If you find them making too many excuses about not finding time to talk to you, it is time you get a signal.

#3. One-sided effort
Right from the ‘Good morning’ message to that ‘Good night’ call, are you always the first one to make the first move? Your partner is online, but never makes the first attempt to ping or respond to your chat. Well, all these are clear signs of differences in priorities! It is best to talk to your partner about it, because there might be some other reason or a problem that could be troubling them. However, if she/he constantly avoids such discussions, then it may be a signal that your garden is no longer so rosy!

#4. Stopped sharing
If your partner stops sharing things with you, behaves secretive, or stops calling you with those adorable nicknames, then it is time to churn those rational wheels of your mind.

#5. The good friend talk!
If you suddenly find your partner sounding more like ‘just a good friend’ while talking to you, expect something wrong. The journey from good friends to lovers is great, but the journey backwards is miserable.

#6. No more future talks
Another thing that should alert you is a sudden stop to those loveable future talks that you used to have with your partner. If your partner has begun to avoid such talks with you, then may be he or she is no more interested to have a future with you.

#7. More an obligation than wish
This is one question you should ask yourself. Is there a ‘have to’ or ‘should’ that comes in your mind every time you make a call to your partner? There are times when you might not realise, but your actions can move you away from your partner. Talking to the person, we love, can never be like a chore or a part of your daily ‘to-do-list’. When your wish to hear his/her voice becomes an obligation, you better understand that your paradise is in deep trouble!
