Most relationships don’t end because of cheating, betrayal, or one big fight.
They end slowly.
Through silence.
Through shutdown.
Through moments that never get repaired.
In this episode, Preston Smiles breaks down 4 common behaviors that quietly kill relationships, even when two people genuinely love each other.
If you’ve ever felt emotionally distant from your partner…
If conversations feel tense, cold, or avoided…
If you’re still together but don’t feel truly connected anymore…
This episode will speak directly to what’s happening beneath the surface.
You’ll learn:
• Why emotional withdrawal hurts more than conflict
• How criticism and contempt shut down safety and attraction
• Why keeping score creates resentment and emotional exhaustion
• How unrepaired arguments build emotional scar tissue over time
• Why “better communication” doesn’t work when the nervous system is overwhelmed
This conversation goes beyond traditional relationship advice and looks at love through a nervous system and attachment lens — helping you understand why disconnection isn’t a character flaw, but a survival response.
Because most couples don’t stop loving each other.
Their bodies just forget how to stay connected under stress.
If you’re in a long-term relationship, marriage, or committed partnership and want deeper emotional intimacy, safety, and repair — this episode will help you see your relationship with clarity, compassion, and responsibility.
Love doesn’t die from one moment.
It fades from what never gets repaired.
