It can be very frustrating when you
notice that your man is slowly distancing himself from the relationship or he
simply acts like he doesn't care anymore. Indeed the relationship may be headed
for the rocks if you notice that your man appears uninterested. However,
instead of arguing about it and heaping all the blame on him, you should ask
yourself, "What am I doing that is pushing him away"? The answer to
this question could salvage your relationship and help you get your man back on
track.
A man may totally be into you and
even worship the ground you walk on but this doesn't mean that he doesn't need
his personal space. It's a common fear to think that your man will fool around
when he is out there, but suffocating him will only make things worse, and stir
up the urge to fool around even more. Relationships are about trust and you
should learn to trust your man and let him enjoy himself with his friends.
Jealously and possessiveness is mainly a sign of insecurity and lack of
confidence and these qualities really turn men off. It's healthy to let your
man enjoy some personal space; it doesn't hurt the relationship in any way.
An unrealistic expectation is another
factor that makes men give up on the relationship and literally walk away.
There is no harm in wanting a hardworking man but not every man can afford to
take you shopping every week or buy you a posh car. Women are fond of
complaining and whining about what their man is not doing for them. It doesn't
hurt to count the blessings that you already have and work hard towards
achieving what you don't have. For starters, you have a man by your side, and
he comes home to you every day and protects you, how many women can attest to
the same?
Communication is an important
ingredient in every relationship, however, women expect men to read their minds
and find out what the problem is. If you want your relationship to work you
will have to come to terms with the fact that men are not mind readers, in
fact, they are clueless most times. Using gestures, body language and facial
expressions will not work and you'll only create a bigger rift between you and
your man. Someday he is bound to get tired with all the non-verbal
communications and simply decide to pull away. As a woman learn to say what you
mean and mean what you say, this will make the relationship much smoother.
Last but definitely not the least is
sex. Men are sexual beings; it's just how they are wired. Women have a habit of
withholding sex when they are annoyed about something. Sex should not be used
as a weapon and making the bed cold could cost you your marriage or
relationship. Strive to resolve all your differences, instead of holding deep
resentment which affects the intimacy in the relationship. There are numerous
other reasons that would drive a man away, it is essential to do some soul
searching and find out if you are the reason why he is pulling away.
