Dear Sir/Madam, I am honored to be able to answer your question and hope that my suggestions will be of some assistance to you.
I am aware of your current state of distress and am uncertain as to how I might cultivate a more intimate relationship with you.
Two methods exist for resolving and adjusting this state of affairs.
First, it is important to recognize that the issue can be attributed to the recent increase in quarrels. To address this, it is essential to implement strategies to reduce the frequency of quarrels.
In an intimate relationship, communication is of paramount importance. The objective of communication is to resolve issues, not to engage in argumentation. Therefore, when communicating, it is essential to do so with a calm and rational mind. When experiencing emotional fluctuations, it is advisable to take a deep breath, temporarily suspend communication, and wait until both parties have calmed down before resuming communication. This approach can enhance the effectiveness of our communication.
Given that we are emotional beings and prone to saying the wrong thing, it is likely that we will say the wrong thing when we are upset. This will serve to deepen the misunderstanding between the two of us and hinder the resolution of the conflict.
Furthermore, we are cognizant of the fact that we have been experiencing a certain degree of anxiety recently, which has led us to express our feelings and thoughts with greater urgency. However, this kind of urgency may give the other person the impression that our emotions are being projected onto them, rather than being received as information. This can lead to misunderstandings and, subsequently, to the deterioration of the relationship.
It is therefore recommended that at this level, appropriate assistance be sought from psychological counseling, methods of regulating emotions be learned, and communication skills be acquired in an appropriate manner, so that some of the problems encountered in the process of maintaining a stable state of mind in the context of a relationship can be effectively addressed.
The second section pertains to our perception of marriage and love.
In both marriage and romantic relationships, it is essential to recognize that each individual possesses the autonomy to regulate their social interactions. When another person encroaches upon this personal space and interferes with our autonomy, it can lead to feelings of coercion and disrespect.
One might inquire whether a partner's disapproval of one's social interactions with friends would result in feelings of discontent or whether such disapproval would be misinterpreted as disrespect towards one's friends.
It is possible that we may have differing perceptions of certain social habits. For instance, in our perception, smoking and drinking are regarded as unfavourable practices, and frequent attendance at bars or discos is similarly viewed as undesirable. However, these are social habits that we engage in, and they are also habits that facilitate the formation of friendships.
However, for our partners, these behaviors may be perceived as normal, leading to a discrepancy in conceptualization. When this discrepancy gives rise to an argument, it may give rise to issues pertaining to respect and boundary violations.
Such behavior may lead to the perception that one's ideas are particularly reasonable. However, socializing in a bar with a group of drinking companions for the purpose of boasting is particularly problematic.
However, our partner may also consider their opinions to be entirely reasonable. We simply enjoy smoking and drinking with the group and engaging in casual conversation in the bar, similar to the manner in which the women converse in coffee shops or at KFC. The only distinction is that the women consume milk tea while the men drink wine. There is no basis for the assumption that the women are being deceitful. Consequently, when the girlfriend expresses disapproval of this behavior or the manner in which he makes friends, she may perceive that her lack of respect for her friends, or even herself, is being questioned. This could lead to the conclusion that her character is flawed, and that her friends' character is also questionable. At this juncture, it is understandable that the feelings towards the girlfriend may be negatively affected.
For example, consider the following statement: "I don't think your friend looks like a good person." Does this sentence sound harsh to our ears? However, it is possible that we subconsciously feel this way about our partner's friends.
Therefore, even if such feelings have never been explicitly expressed, the other person will perceive them and they will affect the communication between the two individuals.
The fundamental aspect of this phenomenon is the alteration of one's perception. This does not entail the acceptance of the bar as a suitable venue; rather, it signifies the acceptance of the definition of friendship as espoused by disparate individuals.
Furthermore, this acceptance is mutual. For instance, at the appropriate time and location, they engage in the optimal social interaction. For example, they meet with their friends on occasion, or a friend has a birthday, in which case they will undoubtedly select a social venue that appeals to everyone and provide enjoyment.
Concurrently, it is imperative that our partner acknowledges and comprehends our aversion to bars and clubbing. Consequently, they will circumvent such social interactions and mitigate the distress they cause us. Conversely, if we do attend such establishments, our partner should provide us with a sense of security, informing us of its location, time of visit, and anticipated attendees, and promptly returning upon completion.
In this manner, the two parties will not unilaterally compel one another to accept each other's habits, but rather will adjust their respective behaviors in a manner that achieves a balance that is acceptable to both.
It is my hope that through introspection and consistent dialogue with one's partner, an optimal relationship paradigm can be identified.
I extend my warmest regards to you and to the world at large.

I understand the pain you're going through. It's really tough when you feel like someone you care about is drifting away. Maybe it's time to focus on yourself and find some peace within.

The situation must be incredibly stressful for you. It might help to address the root of the problem by seeking couple's counseling.
