Relocating abroad has its benefits, but it also presents challenges, especially for couples who cannot travel together due to tight finances or other reasons. With thousands of miles between you, maintaining trust and intimacy requires double the effort, and doubts about your partner’s fidelity may crip in.
If you or someone you know is in this situation, ChatGPT says these are the signs that determine the fate of the relationship.
Inconsistent communication
They are often unreachable or don’t return your calls promptly. If they frequently cancel video calls or avoid discussing their daily life in detail, it’s a red flag.
Secretive about new relationships
Making friends with the opposite sex is normal, especially for someone abroad away from friends and family. But if they become sneaky or evasive when talking about new friends or acquaintances, something’s off.
Changes in financial behaviour
It might be harder to track their spending since they’re far away. But if they get secretive about their finances or are reluctant to share details, they might be funding a lifestyle unknown to you.
Lack of enthusiasm for future planning
If they delay making plans for your visit, relocation or return home, they might be deeply involved in something they don’t want you to know about. This also applies if they avoid discussing long-term goals.
Emotional distance
If you find yourself saying things like, “Is this person still in love with me? Has this person changed? I feel like we’ve become strangers,” it’s a cue that one person in the relationship has become emotionally distant.
Third-party clues
Your mutual friends, family, or acquaintances abroad might not outrightly tell you what your partner has been up to, but they might drop hints. Pay attention to these clues.
Unexplained gaps in time
If they frequently go long periods without contact and provide sketchy details about where they’ve been, this might be the clue you need to know they are spending time with someone else.
