How to Manage Emotional Distance in Relationships
Feeling disconnected in a relationship can be caused by emotional strain or needing space. Open communication about feelings and boundaries helps rebuild connection and trust. Recognizing your emotional needs and giving each other space can reduce tension and foster intimacy over time.

What houses are your sun and moon in?
Her Sun is in leo in the 2 house and moon in Taurus 11 house venus cancer 1 house
Mine Sun in cap 10th house , moon in cancer 3rd house , venus capricorn in 9 or 10th house
are you on the cancer board to relate to your moon sign, jhene?
to me, the whole point of a relationship is to connect emotionally (amongst other things), so i wouldn't deal with it well at all.
can you remember when it started?

I like distance, but disconnect in a romantic relationship would riddle me with fear.
aren't they both similar, if not pretty much the same thing?

You handle distance with patience if you love the person
i agree, if i felt it was temporary, i would be patient.
Are we talking physical distance, like miles between yall. Or emotional distance?

With distance I mean giving each other space to do your own things. I think it's vital to center focus on personal growth aswell.. to re-align with yourself. It solidifies and keeps romantic relationships strong.
Disconnect blocks developing feelings for each other, it's a scary place to be in for a romantic relationship.

now i see what you mean. thanks.
yes you can have your own space but still be very connected.
disconnect happened in my previous relationship. he seemed to take it in his stride naturally but inside i was screaming. in some ways we were just too different, i think.

Guys like him think disconnect will make women hung up on some fantasy about them.
Eugh, their self-indulgent delusions are insufferable.

hmm, i never looked at it that way.
i don't know i assumed his default way of connecting was mentally whereas mine was emotionally but there could have been an element of that at one point in time, i guess.

Have you ever felt distant in a relationship. A total disconnect you want to be there but you dont feel connect to you emotions or you partner. I guess its the constant hurt and heart string pulling but i feel very disconnected from my partner and I know she feels it too.
Once she communicated the relationship feels strained. Now i have this lingering guilt shes only here because of me and not necessarily because she wants to be. im a cancer mooner and shes Leo sun but with asc ,moon and most her other planets in cancer. We both can agree we need space.
Its weird when im around her i feel this detactment and when im around her theres this intensity thats almost suffocating like a strain in my throat and pulling on my chest.
