How to recognize such a man? Is your man cold towards you? Disappears for days? Is he ignoring you? Is your relationship very strained?

Life is too short to spend it on the wrong people and those who don't know how to love back don't give you the emotions you deserve. For a relationship to be successful, you both need to be emotionally available and open to each other.

You need to be honest with yourself and others, accept your partner's feelings and understand that healthy relationships are built on trust and intimacy that deepen over time.

Some people find it difficult to open their hearts because they are afraid of intimacy, maybe they don't understand their feelings, they are afraid of attachment or they have bad experiences from the past and they are afraid of being hurt again.

Here are some signs that a man is emotionally unavailable.

1. He has no friends

An emotionally unavailable person does not know how to share their hidden feelings and thoughts even with friends. He may have a few friends with whom he sometimes spends some time, but he does not trust any of them.

2. He doesn't show much emotion

He doesn't hold your hand, he doesn't hug you, he avoids unnecessary sensuality, he never tells you that he loves you.

3. The relationship with him is hot and cold

Today he is madly in love, tomorrow he is indifferent. Usually, a man behaves in such a way as to keep a distance between you and to prevent the development of true intimacy. He can make excuses that it's hard for him, that he has his own problems, but in reality, he's just not ready for a relationship.

4. Don't introduce you to family, friends

Emotionally unavailable people prefer to divide their lives into several sectors. They do not want to mix their social circles with romantic, business and family circles.

5. He doesn't plan for the future

An emotionally unavailable man will not want to talk about your future relationship prospects. They will try to avoid these topics.

6. He often talks about valuing his independence

He suggests that he likes living alone, that he never wants to get married, or that he doesn't understand how someone can spend their whole life with just one person.

7. You are insecure in a relationship

He doesn't want a serious relationship. But instead of telling you directly, he just keeps you on the ropes, hoping he'll change. He seems to care that he likes you, but you're still not sure of his intentions. When you start talking about it, he immediately changes the subject.

8. He doesn't call or text you for a few days

A mature man will stay in touch even if he is too busy to meet. He will find time to ask how your day was, to hear you out. An emotionally unavailable man doesn't call you for days, then suddenly shows up again as if nothing happened.
