When one partner has emotionally “left” the relationship
It can feel incredibly lonely when you sense your partner has emotionally stepped out of the relationship — still physically present, but harder to reach, less responsive, or more withdrawn.
This is one of the most painful dynamics a couple can face, and it often leaves the other partner carrying the weight of the relationship alone.
You don’t have to hold this by yourself. With the right support, you can explore what led here, what each person needs, and whether reconnection is possible.
