"Every couple comes into a phase where they need to face the point of deciding if they still want to be together. It mainly happens in the fourth year of staying together. Most lovers end up breaking up after the difficulties they had to encounter." 

Khai sighed, turning the page of the magazine he was reading. 

"How to spot the signs that your partner wants to end it with you?" 

He and Third were together for four years, and the stupid article made him nervous for some reason. 

"He's snappy." Khai paused, thinking. Third was snappy even before they started dating. 

"He's annoyed with everything you do." That was normal for them. Third was annoyed with his actions all the time. 

"He's ignoring you." Third tends to do it while working. Nothing out of ordinary so far. 

"He's avoiding your touch." Third is not into skin ship, and it's alright because Khai is the touchy one. 

"He doesn't say I love you back." Third does, though. Rarely, but he does. For example, during their hot nights, or cuddling on the couch, while watching a movie together. Yes, Third is not all the talk and affection, but Khai knows he loves his all the same and maybe even more.
