Not every relationship ends with a big fight.

Sometimes what ends is the conversation.

The look.

The interest in knowing how the other person is doing.

Couples live together in silence every day… but without real presence.

They exchange basic information, avoid difficult conversations and gradually grow apart until they become almost strangers within the same house.

This doesn't mean the love is over.

But it means that the relationship has entered a cycle of emotional protection, where talking has become a risk and silence seems the safest way to avoid conflict.

But this silence also hurts.

It generates resentment, loneliness between the two and, often, fantasies of separation as the only way out.

In my work with couples, I create a safe space to explore the dynamics that are creating this separation.

Helping each person to recognize their fears, the defenses that have been installed over the years and what can still be rebuilt — with truth, presence and healthier boundaries.

The silence can be broken.

And, often, that's when the relationship starts to breathe again, with more depth and intimacy.
