For many couples who break up, it isn’t some major event, some huge breach of trust or some tragedy that makes it happen. Not all breakups look like those found on a CW show. In most cases, couples simply drift apart. They don’t see it happening, they couldn’t really tell you exactly when or how it happened, but some couples wake up one day and realize they no longer feel bonded, in sync, connected…You know; that magical feeling you feel with your one person you want to spend your life with. It’s just gone. The really sad thing is that most of the time, it was within the couple’s control to stop the drift from happening. Life has a way of distracting us—of telling us that this or that is more important and that our relationship can wait. But often, life is lying and it’s up to us to see that. Here are reasons couples slowly drift apart.

You stop catching up
Look, I get it. Sometimes even you are over your own day. You dealt with a conflict at work all day long. You were in the trenches on a project and when you get home you just want to leave these things behind you. Telling somebody about them only forces you to relive all of the emotions you already suffered that day. So when your partner asks about your day, you say, “Nothing much happened.” You just want to get to your lasagna.
