No matter how it happens, one or both of you are left feeling pretty crappy when you call it quits. But one of the hardest ways a relationship or dating situation can end is not with a huge blowout or a lot of tears, it\u2019s when your partner doesn\u2019t really have an explanation, when they just sort of\u2026\u00a0lose interest in the relationship.<\/p>\n
Sometimes it\u2019s not your fault \u2014 sometimes it\u2019s just how time passes or how people change. Sometimes it may be down to something you do, distancing yourself, or hurting the other person, which leads them to zone out of the relationship. But unless they give you a reason why, the important thing is to not be too rash if your partner looses interest. \u201cRegardless of the reason, what\u2019s important is that the person \u2018left behind\u2019 because their partner lost interest does not try and change themselves as a result,\u201d relationship coach and founder of\u00a0Maze of Love,\u00a0Chris Armstrong, tells Bustle. \u201cI once told a client \u2018if parts of you drew your partner away, maybe it\u2019s time to look within but don\u2019t make sudden changes over one person losing interest\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
So if you feel like there\u2019s a pattern of people you\u2019re dating losing interest, maybe it\u2019s time to look inward, but remember that there are so many reasons things can happen.<\/p>\n
Oops. You know how sometimes people warn you not to rush into anything because you can feel so intensely about someone but it wears off? Yup. That happens. Sometimes if they loose interest because, unfortunately, it was never really there in the first place.\u00a0The lust fades\u00a0and there\u2019s no foundation to back it up. It sucks, but it\u2019s true. \u201cThe initial excitement and energy that their partner brought no longer exists. It can be common for people to put their best foot forward upfront, only to fall back to their natural self as the relationship progresses,\u201d Armstrong says.<\/p>\n
Sometimes if you\u2019ve hurt someone, they\u00a0can\u2019t get over it\u00a0no matter how much they try. Although it might seem like water under the bridge, they internalize it and can grow distant until they completely shut down to you or the relationship. Some things are hard to get over.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not always that complicated. We all change, but sometimes those shifts are seismic enough that they\u2019re just not interested in\u2014 or looking for\u2014 the same things any more. \u201cThe person that loses interest has changed or has discovered some things about themselves,\u201d Armstrong says. \u201cIt can be very common for two people to start dating and break up for seemingly no reason. They didn\u2019t fight a lot and communication was good, but perhaps someone found themselves evolving and realizing that the person they have evolved into wants different things in a partner.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not everyone makes their relationship a priority. If their job, or even their hobbies, take over then their relationship will hold less and less interest for them. Maybe it\u2019s one big passion, maybe it\u2019s just being a bit scattered and their attention jumping around, but it\u2019s hard to go through.<\/p>\n
Sometimes, especially during the early stages of a relationship, they just meet someone else. It\u2019s definitely a gut-wrenching, sh*tty feeling, but at least you have a definite \u201cwhy\u201d.<\/p>\n
Not everyone is great at settling down. They get pulled into the rush of an early relationship, but then they just get restless. Do they really want to be with just one person \u2014\u00a0this<\/i>\u00a0person?\u00a0Commitment-phobes are constantly\u00a0looking for greener grass, so it\u2019s easy to lose interest in what\u2019s right in front of them.<\/p>\n7. You\u2019ve Changed<\/h3>\n
Maybe you\u2019ve grown and evolved into a new person, one that you\u2019re happier with \u2014 it just doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that your partner will be too. That\u2019s OK. When their interest wanes, don\u2019t be afraid to go and find someone\u00a0who\u2019s interested in the new you. They\u2019re out there.<\/p>\n\n
