Relationships typically have an ebb and flow to them that can result in a couple feeling incredibly close one week and feeling as though they’re drifting apart the next. If you love your girlfriend and recently you’ve been wondering if she’s feeling as emotionally connected to you, there’s a way to find out. Naturally you can ask her about her feelings but often a person just won’t feel comfortable letting their partner know that things have changed for them. There are some telltale signs your girlfriend is losing interest in you that can help you determine exactly where her heart is at.

One of the obvious signs your girlfriend is losing interest is that she wants to spend less and less time with you. If you two typically spent most evenings together and now she has a wide range of excuses for why she can’t get together, that’s not good for you. If a woman is crazy about her boyfriend, she’ll want to spend as much time as she can with him. When that changes and she seems less concerned about when she’ll see you, you should take that as an indicator that her feelings have shifted.

If you two typically consulted one another on important decisions and that’s now changed that’s one of the more subtle signs your girlfriend is losing interest in you. Women place a great deal of value on the opinion of the man they are in love with. They’ll typically consult him when it comes to almost every significant decision. If she’s starting to make changes and not asking you first, you should sit up and take notice. She may be getting very close to ending the relationship and moving forward without you.
