Pulling away

 Are they pulling away

without saying why?

This is a major red flag

Emotionally healthy

people do not pull

away without

explanation in 

relationships.

When someone truly cares about you, they communicate - even when it's uncomfortable, confusing, or hard to put into words. Pulling away silently creates uncertainty, anxiety, and emotional distance, which is rarely accidental. It can signal avoidance, fear of confrontation, lack of accountability, or even manipulation.

Relationships are built on transparency, respect, and mutual effort. When someone gradually disappears without addressing issues or expressing their feelings, it's not just about them needing space - it's about them failing to engage with the trust and connection you deserve. You should never feel like you're left guessing about their intentions, wondering if you did something wrong, or constantly analyzing every word or action to fill in the gaps.

Pay attention to patterns, not excuses. People who value you will make the effort to explain themselves, even imperfectly. Silence, on the other hand, is a form of emotional neglect that can quietly erode your confidence and your sense of safety in the relationship. You deserve clarity, honesty, and a partner willing to meet you halfway, not someone who retreats without reason and leaves you carrying the weight of unanswered questions.
