Are You “Quiet Quitting” Your Marriage? 😬

We’ve heard of quiet quitting your job, but apparently, some people are now quiet quitting their marriage.

It’s when you’re technically still together, still paying the bills, raising the kids, and deciding what’s for dinner... but emotionally, one person has basically clocked out.

Relationship experts say some of the warning signs include:

• You stop really talking to each other.
• The same arguments never get resolved.
• You’re increasingly impatient with each other.
• And here’s a big one: you automatically assume your partner has bad intentions instead of giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Basically, every little thing they do starts irritating you.

They leave a cupboard door open, and suddenly you're thinking, “This is why your mother warned me.”

Experts say repairing things requires both people to emotionally check back in, and the longer someone has been disconnected, the harder that can be.

So if you're sitting beside your spouse tonight, both scrolling your phones in complete silence...

Maybe say hello.

Or at least send them a TikTok. Baby steps.
