1. Reduced communication and decreased quality: Both parties no longer frequently communicate daily trivialities and inner feelings as in the past, and conversations become brief, cold, and often fall into arguments or silence. Lack of patience and understanding during communication makes it difficult to reach consensus.
2. Lack of intimacy and care: Physical intimacy decreases, such as hugs, kisses, etc. becoming rare; No longer caring about each other's life details, no longer actively asking or paying attention to each other's emotions and needs. The emotional sense of alienation is gradually increasing.
3. Going their separate ways without a common goal: Both spouses no longer reach consensus on family decisions, future plans, and other aspects, but rather work independently without a common goal and vision. The sense of responsibility towards the family has weakened, and there may even be unfair division of labor in areas such as economics and household chores, leading to intensified conflicts.
