There is nothing as bad as wasting time with someone that you know leads to a dead-end. Some people have different reasons for going into a relationship, it could be for companionship, societal/family pressure, financial stability, status, etc. Why it is important to be committed to one’s partner for the right reason, we must put the time factor into consideration.
The way time was created, is the same for everybody but the difference is how we make good use of it. This is because time spent can never be regained and we are all growing older. Hence, you may want to have a rethink and reassess your relationship so that you don’t waste your precious time of a fake lover.
These are signs to look out for:
1. Emotion distance
In a relationship, fakers have a tendency to be non-communicative. They provide little to no substance to what’s going on in their life. They also make excuses why they “couldn’t” communicate especially when it is a little difficult to do so. The difference between them and someone with genuine love for you is the extra effort needed to reach out when it is difficult.
2. Willingness to back out
Conflicts are bound to happen in relationships. Every conflict demands a resolution. If you are the only one trying to resolve any conflict or problems that arise, it is a clear telltale sign of emotional detachment and this of course, is a major sign of a fake lover. They don’t care of the relationship fails because they are not into you.
3. No compromising
Ask yourself these questions- Are you always the one to plan things? Check on the other person? Take responsibility and all that? If so, what concessions, if any, is your partner making? Where is the effort on their part? Relationships and compromise go hand-in-hand. A lack of effort is a universal sign of disinterestedness.
4. Unconcern
A genuine relationship sparks feelings of passion for each other. You will automatically be curious, concerned, involved, etc in the other person’s life. Someone who continuously cares less isn’t committed and is likely to be detached, and unready – not to mention unworthy – of a real relationship.
5. Trust your instincts
Many times, when someone doesn’t really love you, you will know. Your instincts would never deceive you. It gives you a clear picture is clear that this babe or that guy doesn’t really love you. They are only with you because they have no option, or for the money or some other fake reason.
