10 sure signs a man has stopped loving you

“A man’s love is expressed in three ways: he publicly declares his rights to you, protects you, and maintains you,” says Steve Harvey, the author of the sensational book “Behave Like a Lady, Think Like a Man”. Part of this statement is questionable: today, many women do not accept the need to be held or protected by men. But they (and, of course, they too) definitely need love if they have started a relationship. However, it’s true that sometimes women tend to see love where it definitely isn’t.

Sometimes it happens that the man does not say anything, but the woman feels that something is wrong. O awesome.club gathered 10 clear signs that a man doesn’t have strong feelings for you. Carefully analyze your behavior in the situations described below.

The language of love consists of tender words, caresses, hugs and kisses. When we say to our partner “sweetheart”, “my life” or “kitten”, what we are really doing is creating an intimate and special atmosphere, shared only between two people. The choice of the affectionate name happens unconsciously, and shows how the treatment is in the couple, who dominates in the relationship and how balanced it is.

By the way, men need caresses as much as women. American researchers interviewed 1,000 couples and found that husbands who kiss and hug their wives often feel 3 times happier in their marriage than those who don’t. So if your partner shuts down every time you hug him and say “my kitty” (or whatever the word is), the reason isn’t your tough man condition. As sad as it is, it is more likely that the feeling for you has cooled down.

There is a wise saying of Omar Caiam: “In a loved one, you like even the faults, and in unloved people even virtues irritate”. For a man who really loves you, you will always look beautiful, even disheveled and in pajamas inherited from your grandmother. You won’t even realize you’ve gained a couple of extra pounds after the holidays if you don’t tell yourself. But if a man constantly sends you to the gym or insinuates that you need plastic surgery, don’t be too quick to please him. Most likely, If he doesn’t like the way you look, it’s because he doesn’t like you. And even if you lose weight, he will still find some flaw to make some criticism later.

Women tend to discuss relationship problems or their partners’ shortcomings with their female friends, but men generally prefer not to air conflicts externally. Nobody is perfect, but people who truly love focus on their partner’s strengths, not their shortcomings.

If your partner allows himself to publicly humiliate you and laugh at your mistakes, don’t expect anything good from this relationship. Your partner doesn’t respect you, and without respect, a solid and strong relationship is impossible. By criticizing her in front of other people, you unconsciously try to show others (and yourself) that it’s your fault that he stopped loving you.

Women often complain about their man’s socks lying around the house, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have weird habits either or that they drive them crazy. They may enjoy taking 2 hours to shower and spending the same amount of time talking to their mother on Skype; occupy the entire closet with your things, take food from your boyfriend’s plate at the restaurant to try; sing the same silly song all day. At the same time, men who love, in general, put up with all this naturally and remain silent or react with humor. But if the man has started to make constant comments about any smallness, the only feeling he still has for you is irritation.

Scientists have shown that a man is able to listen intently to a woman for just 6 minutes. So, dear friends, keep this in mind when planning an important conversation with your partner. The subjects a man finds the most difficult to focus on are: unknown people, celebrity life, shopping, fashion, and diets. These are things best to gossip about with friends.

And yet, if a man sees that you really want to tell him something, he’ll make the effort and listen intently, even if the topic doesn’t interest him at all. If he loves you, he won’t let you down. But if he changes the subject or runs off to do his thing every time you try to talk, chances are he’s not interested in your concerns. Consequently, it also does not intend to solve the accumulated problems in the relationship.

Men can’t seem to bear the tears of women. And a scientific explanation has recently been found for this: female tears are found to contain special volatile substances that reduce men’s blood testosterone levels (and consequently, sexual desire as well).

In fact, when you cry, a man prefers to run away. But if he loves her, he will resist that desire and try to comfort her with all his might, even if the reason for her tears seems trivial. You will only be calm when a smile shines on your face again. But if he doesn’t love her, her tears will just be another reason for him to be angry.

Flirting is very helpful for relationships. It is a great tool to rekindle feelings and overcome the routine when the couple has been together for a long time. The racy text messages, the intriguing innuendo, the playful photos: these are things that help spark mutual interest, just like in the early days of a relationship. Of course, it is very important that both partners actively respond to each other’s flirtation.

But if you’ve already sent 10 erotic selfies in different poses to your loved one and broke your head making up new flirting jokes, and the man’s reaction is nil, put this unpleasant task aside. And it’s probably a good idea to leave it too.

For a man who loves, the requests and desires of the woman he loves will always come first (not those of friends or distant relatives). In fact, men like to help women: it gives them the opportunity to demonstrate how big, strong, and responsible they are. Of course, there are times when man cannot help himself. For example, he might not know how to fix a leaky faucet, but he definitely shouldn’t let you solve the problem yourself. In any case, you will end up calling a plumber. But if even your most innocent “love, help me change the light bulb, please” requests are met with grunts and like an impossible task, worth considering: isn’t he helping another woman, and with much more enthusiasm?

It turns out that even monkeys can be jealous of their mates towards other males. Jealousy emerged in the course of evolution as a way of maintaining the integrity of the couple. Unconsciously, men want to assert their rights over women, to be the sole “owner” of their beauty.. So it’s quite natural for your partner to start getting nervous when another “male” pays attention to you. But of course people are not monkeys, and bouts of excessive jealousy will only damage a relationship.

But when a man is absolutely indifferent to the signs of attention that other men show towards his partner, that’s an alarming sign. He doesn’t want to fight for her anymore and try to be better so she doesn’t leave with someone else.

The need to protect loved ones is also basic to men. And being protected is a natural need for women. And while modern men no longer need to protect women from predators and savage tribes, our world is full of dangers. That’s why it’s only natural for the man he loves to be worried when his partner comes home late from work or is alone in a place or with an unfamiliar company. If he can’t be around, at least he’ll call and make sure she’s okay. By protecting a woman from dangers (real or imagined), a man feels like a superhero.

So, if you don’t get protection and support from the man in difficult situations (e.g. you’re going home alone at night, got lost in an unfamiliar city, or your boss yelled at you but your partner doesn’t care), that’s a sign too bad. Either your partner is a coward or he just doesn’t love you. And why would you want someone like that?
