Anyone having gone through a love break up knows how much it hurts. Thinking back to before the break up, you probably realise that there was signs of things to come that you never saw before. Keeping those signs in mind, and learning from them, will help you prevent future relationships breaking down. Also, they may help you reverse the split, and get back together again.

If there’s one sign that’s sure to signal an impending love break up, it’s the lack of physical contact. I’m not just talking about sex here. If your partner all of a sudden loses their interest in sex, it could spell an upcoming love break up. But it’s normal for any relationship that there’s times with lots of sex, and times with less. This is part of the flow and rhythm of the relationship. It’s only natural.

However, if your partner stops holding your hand for no apparent reason, a love break up could well be on the cards. If he or she starts to shy away from physical contact in public, when they never used to, that is also a sign of trouble. It’s usually a sign of problems ahead, if your partner suddenly changes the way they show you affection outside the bedroom.

Things can even end up in a state where your significant other becomes uncomfortable when you touch him or her, in which case it’s definitely time for a chat to find out what the problem is. The fact that your partner flinched away from your touch is not necessarily the same as to say your relationship is about to end, though. From time to time a person may not want to be touched, and there could be a number of reasons for that.

Your partner may have had their mind on something else, and your touch would have surprised them. Unless you’re quite intimate outside of bed, your partner may have thought of your touch as an invitation to have sex. It could well be that your partner moved away from your touch because they’re not in the mood for sex right at this moment in time. That’s not the same as being headed for a love break up.

Also, your partner could have a bad hair day. A love break up is not imminent, nor is there something wrong with your realtionship, everytime your partners mood changes. Give things some time, and watch your partners behaviour, to see if it was just a one-off thing, something they only do at certain times, or if it’s something they do on a regular basis.

Finally, if you catch your partner lying to you, even if it’s a “white lie”, it could be a sign of problems. At the end of the day, if a lie is really quite harmless, why would you even tell it? Large damaging lies usually start off as a tiny white lie. Don’t think that a lie is the same as an impending love break up though. Your partner could be keeping something nice secret from you – like a surprise party – or a family reunion. Your partner may not be scheming about a love break up, but rather trying to keep you in the dark about a fun and harmless secret.
