(The real reason why you’re falling out of love)
We don’t talk nearly enough about the papercuts that we get in our relationship.
Not the big, dramatic blow ups that make you pack a bag and storm out like you’re in some trashy MAFS scene. 😤
No, I’m talking about the little moments.
The raised voice.
The “you’re being too sensitive.” 🥺
The important thing you had on today that they couldn’t be arsed to ask about.
The “not now” when you go in for a cuddle. ❤️🩹
The silent treatment you got because they had a rough day… and you didn’t read their bloody mind.
Tiny cuts. 😣
You barely notice them at first.
They sting, sure. 🦂
But you tell yourself it’s fine.
Everyone gets cranky.
It was just a bad day.
You’re just tired. 🥱
But those little fuckers stack up.
And here’s the thing.. every papercut makes you flinch just a little.
Pull back a bit.
Love a little less. 😥
Trust a little less.
Want to try a little less.
Distance yourself a little more….
Until one day, you’re sitting next to someone you used to adore, wondering why it feels so… cold. 🥶
So distant.
Like you’re sharing a house with a flatmate who sometimes gets snarky if you breathe too loud.
No big betrayal. No infidelity. Just a thousand tiny wounds.
Death by a thousand “it’s not a big deal.”
But it is a big deal.
Because love doesn’t vanish in one dramatic moment… it leaks out slowly through the cracks we ignore.
Through the affection we stop showing.
The empathy we stop offering.
The grace we stop giving.
If this hits a nerve, I feel you.
Maybe it’s time to stop brushing off the papercuts.
Start noticing them. Naming them.
And maybe – just maybe – patch them up before there’s nothing left worth saving.
And if you’re thinking, “well, they’ve hurt me too…” 😥
Yep, they have.
But you’re not responsible for what they do.
You’re responsible for whether you bleed quietly… or say, “not this, not anymore.”
Speak up.
Heal up. ❤️🩹
Or don’t be surprised when love finally gives up.
