If you've been together with your partner for years on end, the initial spark is likely long gone. For many of us, that new relationship energy transitions into a long-term, stable kind of love, but that's not the case for everyone.
Redditor u/cha-chams wanted to know how other folks figured out that they weren't in love with their partner anymore, and there were a surprising number of subtle (and shockingly obvious) examples provided by the AskReddit crew.

We sifted through hundreds of responses, and picked out some particularly noteworthy ways to tell if you should start considering calling it quits with this particular relationship. After all, some relationships simply won't work out in the long run even if nobody involved did anything "wrong."
Note: Relationships are complex, and everyone is different. Talking openly and couples therapy are other options if things aren't working.
