Hi soccerfan23,
It’s a great question and one that many people struggle with. A few signs that you may be forcing yourself to love someone:
- You constantly have to talk yourself into being with them. Love should feel natural, not like a chore.
- You’re always making excuses for their behavior or incompatibility.
- You feel more relieved than happy after spending time with them.
The heart wants what it wants. If it continually feels like an uphill battle, it may be time to reconsider the relationship. Couples counseling can help sort through confusing feelings. But ultimately, you deserve a love that feels right, not forced.
Hope this provides some clarity! Wishing you all the best as you navigate this.
In addition - if you suspect your partner may not be fully committed and you feel a need to monitor their phone activity for signs they may be cheating, a tool like mSpy can help by tracking texts, calls, locations and more:
