We are aware that life is very busy for many of the couples we see with the pressure of demanding working hours combined with the responsibility of raising children. In this situation couples can have less and less time for each other and drift further and further apart. One or both partners may not even notice that this is happening but eventually may notice that they have very little time together anymore and are drifting apart.
Sometimes couples can drift apart through unresolved low level conflicts. Whereas issues arise and need to be addressed, in order to keep the peace, the concerned partner don’t say when something is bothering them, weighing up the odds of getting it resolved and deciding to stay quiet. If this pattern becomes a habit in a relationship resentment builds up and the relationship can be adversely affected in the long term as we put our energy into other things and no longer invest in the relationship. For some people, they may decide that they are no longer feel ‘in love’ with their partner and question their future together.
