1. You Don’t Trust Them Anymore
There are many relationship and dating experts who say that if you don’t trust your significant other, the whole connection is actually in vain. Some of the things that can make you suspicious about your partner are emotional damage and infidelity.
These things can make you turn away from your spouse and act like there’s a huge distance between you two. Long story short, when you don’t trust your partner, you might act like they’re no longer important to you because deep down, you don’t care anymore.
2. You Keep Fighting
If you and your spouse fight all the time, without actually making any effort to try and understand each other, you should be careful. This can lead to serious problems in your relationships, especially indifference.
No one has enough time or energy to repeat the same things over and over again. At some point, you get exhausted and you stop making an effort. When the constant fighting gets to you, you might notice that you’re actually becoming more and more disengaged.
3. You Grow Apart From Each Other
There are moments when our relationships go through a rough period of time. You focus all your attention and energy on your own responsibilities and problems, or you go through things that change you in a way that pulls you away from your significant other.
These things happen because all relationships have their own ups and downs. You have to understand that if you don’t constantly work on your relationship, this slow grow-apart thing can lead to a big sense of indifference over time.
4. Indifference Is Contagious
There are many things that can become contagious in a long-term relationship, such as being focused on work, having a cleaning obsession, eating habits, or even indifference.
When one of the partners turns off, it doesn’t take a lot of time for the other person to notice the changes in their behavior. Rather than having an honest conversation about it, the other person usually chooses to mimic the disconnected attitude.
As you can imagine, the whole thing starts to transform into a snowball that keeps rolling and rolling, completely ruining the relationship.

I’ve been with my spouse for 32 yrs we were engaged for 13 yrs and been married 20 I lost communication with him yrs ago he always compared me to his ex wife!! She put a hurting on him and walked out on him and 2 children for him to raise a lone!! There was no comparison I took care of my child and helped him with his but he could never let go of her completely!! I still hung in there hoping for a change and the love I feel I deserved and wanted so badly He hurt me terribly and to this day I feel I not good enough!!! We are still married I feel we have become a habit that neither one of us can break!!! We haven’t been intimate in 6 yrs we don’t sleep together and don’t do a lot of community As we have aged I feel he’s a shamed of me!! We don’t go out in public together much!!! We don’t ask and I remain quiet!!! I’m not perfect But I know I’ve been a good wife to him!!! I feel like at one time he was seeing his ex wife I never really tried to find out for sure!! I loved him so deeply As of now we just live in the same house He does whatever he decides with out me and I work and take care of home!!! I don’t understand myself for putting my heart out there and trying and praying for his love and never getting it!! He has never loved me as I loved him!!! It’s hurtful I have become numb and I really don’t care what he does it’s the same thing every day!!! But I pray that someday he is man enough to say I’m sorry for hurting you!!! Guess I’ll see (HUH)
