Is the relationship over?

Strange question I know but how many people really take stock and tap into how they are truly feeling about their relationship.

It is impossible to definitively say if a relationship is over without more information and that is what Together or Apart offer, the skilled and expertise opportunity to support and facilitate difficult conversations and help you make decisions in a considered, understanding and constructive way.

There are several signs that may indicate a relationship is ending or is in serious trouble, including communication breakdown, lack of intimacy, avoidance, aggressive communication styles, spending time apart, or questioning the future of the relationship. If you are experiencing these issues, it's important to consider whether you and your partner are able to work through them or if it's time to consider ending the relationship. 

Here are some key areas to examine:

• Communication:

  Are you and your partner still able to communicate openly and honestly? Is there a lack of communication, or do you find yourselves arguing frequently and aggressively? 

• Intimacy:

  Is there a lack of physical or emotional intimacy? Are you still feeling connected to your partner both emotionally as well as physically?

• Future:

  Can you see a future together? Are your goals and values aligned? Do you respect each others differences or are you stuck in trying to change each other?

• Trust:

  Do you feel like you can trust your partner? Is there a lack of trust or dishonesty? 

• Effort:

  Are you and your partner both making an effort to maintain the relationship, or has one or both of you stopped trying? 

• Conflicts:

  Are you experiencing constant conflict or even abuse within the relationship? 

One of the key signs that your relationship could be over is that you feel like the spark has gone. A foundation of a healthy relationship is that both partners feel comfortable being truly open with each other in sharing thoughts, feelings and opinions.

Together or Apart help couples reconnect as well as helping avoid the emotional and financial turmoil that comes with ending a relationship.

We offer a range of packages that help individuals and couples have honest and difficult conversations about what matters to them, what their core values are and what goals they aspire to in life. Very often couples feel their relationship is the easiest thing to put on hold or on pause whilst dealing with the every day routine and stresses of life including work and financial pressures as well as parenting styles and health concerns.

We help you become curious about the way you have been functioning as individuals as well as a couple, looking at the reality and the possible options for change.
