Love lives in the small, unnecessary details—knowing exactly how you like your coffee or picking up that specific snack you mentioned once. When a partner checks out, that “extra mile” feels like a marathon they don’t want to run. You’ll find yourself doing 90% of the heavy lifting: planning the dates, remembering the anniversaries, and initiating the “we should talk” moments. When someone stops trying to please you, it’s usually because they’ve stopped valuing the reward of your smile.
