7 Signs That Yourboyfriendis About To Leave You by Jaydruke(m): 9:35pm On Jan 17, 2013
Love and relationships isa beautiful thing and we allwould like to experience them but not allof the time is the person we’re with the right one for us. This leads to the dreaded “break up” that we all hope not to go through but it is inevitable and necessary for progress.
We must move on and leave unfulfilling relationships if we want to reach our goal of finding “the one”. Now I’m no love expertand have no degrees in studying relationships which to some extent is good because I am speaking from real experiences and not just statistics but I would like to share my knowledge to help others in this situation.
I’m only speaking from a woman’s point of view because I can’tspeak for whatgoes on in a man’s mind. Sometimes we go into denial and blow off obvious signals that he is about to give you the boot. I will give examples of each sign from my own past failed relationships tohelp give you an idea.
This isn’t your typical top ten signs your guyis going to leave you. I’m talking about all of them. NowI might have missed some so this isn’t the full complete list soif you have more please share with us your experiences. So what are the signs that your boyfriend is ready to let you go and move on?
1: He makes comments about attractive women and not so much you
If your guy cares about you, he’ll be complimenting your attractiveness left and right while ignoring other girls. If he starts commenting about how sexy another woman is right in front of you and stops commenting on your sexiness,that’s a sign he’s done with you. You no longer appeal to him so his eyes are wandering and he doesn’t care if you know it. Ex: My ex would mention how cute the girls inhis film class were right in front of me andwould even suggest me doing things that they did totry and make myself look better.
2: He doesn’t do what he says he will/ then does it immediately after you’re gone
Naturally we have to bug guys nonstop to get him to take the trash out or mow the lawn, that’s normal actually but when it comes to more important things that’s when it becomes a bad sign. If he goeson about getting a betterjob so he can care for his family and never does then five yearsgo by, that’s a bad sign.
It’s even worse if directly after he lets you go he does it thenhooks up with another. He tells you that he will do things with youbut then mysteriously bails every time it comes up. Ex: My ex for two years talked about making a film and did nothingwith it until after I was gone. He nevertook photos of himself but suddenly after I was gone he became a photohound taking pictures of himself nonstop. He promised to take me camping but every time the chance came hemade up excuses to keep it from happening
3: He turns youinto the bad guy when you haven’t done anything at all
Guys will flip things onto youso that you become the badone in the relationship even though you might havehandled every situation correctly or what he is accusing you ofis untrue. The guy may complain that you’re being distant, yet he’s the one avoiding you.
He might say you don’t give him enough space, even though you changed your schedule to only see him once a week. He might say you have no goals when you’re going toschool to be a lawyer while he’s sitting on the couch watching TV allday with no job. Hopefully you get the point here. It can be anything from them accusing you of being too dependent to not communicating yet they are the ones that fit what they are accusing you of being.
Ex: He claimed that I had no goals and just wanted to be a house wife justbecause I cleaned his apartment a few times. Just because I didn’t have a job for five months out of our two year relationship meant I was lazy. It took mefive months to get a new job after I was laid off yet somehow I was lazy. For two years I workedfive days a week all day except for the five months I was job searching
4: He keeps asking aboutthe status ofthe relationship
If the guy keeps asking “are we okay”,that’s a problem. Now, asking about the status of a relationship if it’s early off like just started dating is something I can pass. When you’re freshly dating, you want to tryto make sure you’re doing things right so you can work on correcting big problems so that in the long run you’ll be fine but after awhile you should stop the askingand let things be.
By then if your relationship is good and healthy you won’t even need to be thinking about if you’re doing well. If out of the blue he starts harassing you with this question, it’s his way of saying he doesn’t think you’re doing well together and wants to break it off. Ex:When my ex and I came to our final months together he used to ask if our relationship was good every time I saw him. Each time he asked he worded it differently but it still came down to “are we okay?”

5: He makes comments/hinting that obviously says he’s done
If he starts making too many jokes about breakingup with you, heprobably does. Every time youget into an issue with him, he shouldn’t besaying, “Geez you’re annoying. I should break up with you.” He starts hinting that youhave nothing incommon or hinting that he’s not right for you.
He may hint that your goalsconflict with hiseven if they don’t. He’s trying to let you know that you’re not going to be around much longer so he’s dropping hints. Ex: My ex made jokes about breakingup with me frequently, even if it wasn’t attached to something bad. We could be eating out and he would say he should break up with me because I liked ranch withmy fries instead of ketchup
6: Withdrawal, avoiding andignoring you
Remember the days he used to call or text you when he was on break at his job? These fly out the window as he starts to ignore you. You end up going long periods of time without seeing or hearing fromhim. When you finally get in touch with him he won’t soundtoo excited andmight want to rush your interactions to keep them short. To put itshort he wantsto keep it shortwhich means heis over you.
Ex: My ex stopped sending and responding to calls and texts.He would make up excuses to avoid me and I even had friends/family members catch him in his lies. He would say he was at workthus why we couldn’t be together but then my brother would catch him at themall hanging with friends
7: His friends are more important than you
Yes, we all have friends and like to hang with them alone without having your partner clingingto your hand but when the friends come over you, there’s a problem. You should have equal time with friends and your boyfriend.He might start breaking plans with you for hisfriends. His friends get to see him six of the seven days a week and you just get the one. He’s bored withyou and is getting his fun from his pals. Ex: He would break off important dates/events that we had planned for in advance just to go play games with his friends.
