There are a lot of things in life that can be boring, or routine, or just generally meh. Your love life, though, should not be one of them.

Odds are, if you’re reading this article in the first place, you’ve already been battling a nagging feeling, wondering why you just can’t make yourself be happy in this relationship.

Or, maybe, you’ve already made a decision to split and you’re making sure you made the right call. Or maybe still, you want to make sure you don’t settle for mediocre love again in the future.

How, then, do you see it coming before it’s too late?

1: Your mind — and heart — keep wandering (and wondering).

I’ve been around long enough to understand that we are all biological animals and the eyes wander from time to time. I believe there is security in being able to admit that another man or woman is attractive without being worried about them stealing your partner away. To deny that any human other than your significant other is attractive, is just silly.

However, if the mind and heart begin to wander, that is a different story altogether.
