You don't walk as a team.
Power couples (think: Prince William and Kate Middleton) have in-sync walking patterns. "The goal is for couples to walk with their feet side by side on an invisible line," Patti Wood, body language expert and author of SNAP: Making the Most of First Impressions, Body Language, and Charisma told GoodHousekeeping.com. "When this walking pattern is disrupted, it indicates that there is a disconnect between the couple."

You're closed off.
When royals cross their legs, they can chalk it up to proper etiquette. But for the average Joe, crossed legs can show that someone feels detached from the situation —or worse, the person that they're with. "If your legs are closed, your partner will pick up on your disinterest," says Wood."And a lack of sexual interest leads to a relationship's downfall

You pat each other on the back (literally) .
Hey, we all need a pat on the back from time to time. However, it's questionable when a romantic partner opts for a gentle pat instead of an intimate embrace. "If you partner begins to pat you on the back during a hug, it immediately desexualizes it, " says Wood. "Let's face it, you and your partner aren't just teammates." 

You touch your neck during a conversation.
In emotional situations, we all have a tendency to find ways to comfort ourselves. Women, in particular, typically touch their neck or throat. "Oftentimes, touching the neck or throat indicates that someone is keeping something from another person," says Wood. "The throat is the gateway for words, and therefore it's one of the most vulnerable parts of the body."

You're not as close as you used to be.
If you notice that your partner (or even, yourself) are physically close to everyone except for one another, then it's time to evaluate your relationship. "When examining the lack of intimacy between you and your partner, it's important to think about if this is singular to you," says Wood. "If so, that means there's trouble in paradise."
