One of the hardest situations to be in is being in a relationship with someone you still love deep down but aren’t happy with. 

Sometimes, there are moments when you realize that you’re not getting anything out of your relationship anymore. Although you may love your partner, they can start feeling like a stranger, and you don’t enjoy your time with them like you used to.

That’s the peculiar thing about love – we can still love people we no longer like spending time with. Many divorced couples who had children together or went through a lot together may still feel love for their ex, but that doesn’t mean they’re meant to be together anymore.

If you love your partner but aren’t happy in your relationship, it may be time to move on. However, it’s an extremely difficult thing to do. You may be looking for some signs that it’s time to leave. 

Here are a few indicators that it’s time to leave your partner, even if you still have love for them.

Your communication has died down

If communication has died down in your relationship in more ways than one, that’s a bad sign. For instance, it could start with you and your partner not texting or calling each other throughout the day. Then, it turns into you hardly speaking when you’re both home.

Communication is essential to a healthy relationship. If you don’t feel you can talk to your partner about anything at any time, it indicates that it may be time to end things.

You don’t feel emotionally connected to them
