In the beginning we love almost everything about our partner. Over time, however, that changes as we start to see the flaws too. But in some relationships it goes much deeper. When you start asking, as many do, “What are the signs he doesn’t love me anymore?” there’s clearly something bigger going on.
All relationships go through natural ups and downs.
Often these fluctuations resolve themselves with time. Sometimes, however, these changes can become permanent and cause for concern.
If you're one of the many women who want to know if there are signs he doesn't love you anymore, you’re not alone.
So, how do you know if the changes in the love you're experiencing are normal or a problem?
It can be tricky, but there are signsthat will tell you if he doesn’t love you anymore. Recognizing them, however, requires us to first look at how someone loves us in the beginning.
Take a look at this post from my social media page about how to know if someone loves you.
Think back to the beginning of your relationship and see if any of the following sounds familiar.
At the beginning we,
It's natural for the way we love our partner to change over time.
We may not feel the same way later in the relationship as we did in the beginning. We may not be as forgiving or understanding either.
And, arguably, in the beginning nearly all of us were a little too carefree in how easily we blindly loved, because early love can make us act more than a bit naïve and foolish.
As time goes on that naïve phase fades and we see our partner more clearly. This is a good thing.
Loving someone with blinders on means building your relationship on a house of cards – eventually it will collapse.
But if most or all of the signs of love and appreciation disappear, that's one of the warning signs he may not love you anymore (here are more signs your husband doesn't love you).
So, before you start looking for signs that he doesn’t love you anymore, think about what it was like when you felt certain of his love.
Are those things all gone?
If you think those loving things are gone, or if you’re feeling uncertain, it’s time to look a little closer and see if there are other signs he may have fallen out of love with you.
Women are often much more in-tune with changes in feelings within a relationship than are men.
Because the changes can be subtle, they can be excused away easily. This can make it hard for anyone to spot, let alone accept, the signs he doesn't love you anymore.
Before we look at some specific signs, however, it’s important to recognize that just as relationships change over time, expressions of love do too.
As easy as it is to explain away the lack of loving gestures, it can be just as easy to read too much into the lack of them as well.
Sometimes it's just the normal ups and downs of a busy daily life can cause us to overlook and forget to do the small things we used to do that expressed our love.
However, if you’re truly concerned that he doesn’t love you anymore then there are certain signs to watch for – see if any of these seem familiar:
There can be understandable reasons for any of these unloving behaviors, so they need to each be considered in in the context of your entire relationship.
If you're seeing signs in your relationship that concern you, it’s important to remember that it takes two to tango as they say.
Before you sound the alarm and begin pondering things like,
take a step back and spend some time considering your own behavior.
Are you displaying any of the same behaviors?
One thing that’s true in all relationships is that we react to each other.
Angry or dismissive behavior by one person is often met with angry and dismissive behavior by the other.
So, it’s important to make sure you aren’t actually part of the problem before you determine that it’s all him.
If these behaviors become persistent, however, and you're confident you're doing your part, then it’s possible you’re actually seeing signs he doesn't love you anymore.
That doesn’t mean that you can’t get the love back, however. It will just take time, effort, and work on both of your parts.
It can also help to get the viewpoint of an unbiased, objective, trained person when you're trying to make this important determination, so consider couples counseling before you decide it’s over.
Ending your relationship isn’t a decision to make alone.
Feeling like you’re seeing signs he doesn't love you anymore can be extremely painful.
There’s nothing easy about feeling like the love you once shared has deteriorated or is gone. So, if you think you’re seeing signs he may not love you anymore, keep the following things in mind:
Most of all, remember there’s still hope. Seeing signs he doesn’t love you anymore doesn’t mean he can’t love you again.

I've been married for 10years and we have 2 kids together. My husband has a son from a previous relationship. His son abuse our daughter charges have been filed. This happen about 3 months ago. I've been distressed about it and my husband and I haven't been intimate like we used to. I've messed with our saving buying my daughter things to make her forget without telling him and now he found out not sure how to tell him what's been going on because he doesn't believe in depression. We are not even talking. And we sleep back to back. I feel like he doesn't love me or won't understand what's going on with me.
Cher, This is a really complicated situation and there is too much to address in this forum. The safety of your children is most important. Find a local professional marriage therapist you can talk to, and if he won't go with you, go on your own. Marriage counseling doesn't need both partners to go to be successful. -Kurt
These life stories are all so painful to read. I let myself be with an emotionally abusive man for 20 years. We never got married. I kept making excuses for him and forgiving him. He was extremely narcissistic and thought everything revolved around him. It took me a good part of those years to realize that he was the male version of my mother! Without a doubt--the putdowns, belittling, lack of love or any caring. He would make obligatory gestures like buying me a birthday card and getting me a Christmas present. He liked to pick fights and abandon me in public places. And, I kept forgiving. Now he has been out of my life for over a year. How could I still miss this type of abuse. Although I keep myself busy with work, volunteering, and other activities, I still long for a loving partner.
M confused becous he says that he doesn't love me anymore but when he pass by my house he just great me the other he was in the truck n i didnt see him but he just waved and greeted me n he would stop by my house n talk to my dauhgter the thin is he is not a father to my daughter so i dont no if he is punishing me or wat or mayb he is playin hard to get pls if u could just explain this to me cous i dont no wat is going on btn us
Iesego, I can't tell you what's going on with him without knowing him. You can't control what he does, only how you react to what he does. You can take control of the situation back by letting him know that his behavior isn't ok with you. See the other articles in the section Love Is Gone for some ideas. -Kurt
I am married for 5 years with 2 kidso. He has stop having sex with me. He argues and snubs me evertime, he can give you anything but we sleep in separate rooms no normal discussion.he stays late at nyt and sleep out too. His friends asking him to treat me anyhow he wants that it's his right Am feedup
My husband and I have been together for almost 6 years now, married for a little more than 3. He never asked me to marry him, we kinda just talked about it after his mom brought it up because we had a child together. We married young and had are fair share of hardships. Before we were married, and had our first child (we now have 2) he used to drive 45 mins every Friday to pick me up and 45 to drop me off on Sunday. We couldn't get enough of each other. Now that I am a mom in school and don't have the body I used to things are so much different. I feel so alone all the time. I feel as if I have become a nuisance and have experienced many of the signs he doesn't love me anymore. I would say 6 out of the 9 listed above. Some more than others but I definitely don't feel the love anymore. You just kind of know. I don't know who to talk about this with. I feel so depressed and numb. I find myself reading love stories hoping that someday someone will love me like that. I want my family more than anything and I love my husband so much but I also want to be happy and loved and know that once are kids grow there will be nothing left if we can't turn this around... 🙁
AlyL, We all deserve to happy and feel loved, but keep in mind that love stories from books and movies are not real life. Try going to see a professional marriage counselor, and if he won't go, go without him as it doesn't need both partners to work. -Kurt
