Going through various stages in life can lead couples to grow apart if they do not actively engage in self-discovery. Many relationships can stall due to complacency, where partners fall into predictable routines, forgetting to explore their own evolving desires and needs. It’s essential to regularly assess one's own feelings and desires to foster healthier relationships as these insights will guide discussions about the partnership.
