5 signs you're headed toward a breakup

I don't completely buy this list either..My husband and I don't fight and we hardly ever argue and we have one of the most solid marriages I know..and as for thinking things through..most people in a good marriage learn to think before they open their mouths if they respect their partner at all..so I side with danishcanadian on those 2 points. But I have an issue with these kinds of blanket lists to begin with, I don't think they are a fair or accurate yard stick for the average marriage that is on solid ground.

Hello Sarah! Fortunately I did not face in break up in my life. The reasons given by you are surely indicate bitterness between a couple and if these reasons persist, they may be heading for break up. If I find that any of these signs is becoming visible in my relationship, I would like to 'finish' that sign as soon as possible. I would try to balance and accommodate the situation with my partner. In my hearts of heart, I would never like to break any of my relationship with anyone.

Yes..I had a guy that wanted to marry me.....but I could tolerate him for about six weeks then I would need a break.....so we stopped the relationship building behaviors....he got to the point where he just wanted me to come over and be a couch potato with him....at first the dating is exciting then you fall into boredom if you don't watch it....

hi there sarah.. Not Calling Before, your partner used to call just to say they loved you. Now the calls are becoming less frequent and when you're expecting the call it doesn't come at all. Not calling is a sign that your partner has lost interest in communicating with you and you're on your way out.. They Criticize You... It seems now that you're never able to do anything right and you cannot please your partner. How come they're being so brutally honest all of a sudden? Your feelings may not matter much anymore. Conversations Become Less Personal The conversations become less about me and you unless they're complaining but more about general stuff. You want to talk about the future, about being together, owning that house but they find ways to avoid talking about it or keep their responses very sparse. Constantly Fighting You're constantly fighting and arguing especially about little things. Your partner may well be doing this intentionally so they can have an excuse to get away. Constantly fighting may lead to, "I cant do this anymore" and "I think we should see other people" and the classic, "I need some space." You Spend Less Time Together You and your partner are spending less and less time together where you used to spend time with each other. They suddenly cant make it for lunch or they're doing something Saturday or have to work late. Whatever the reason, you don't get to see them as often as before. This may also be for some of the other warning signs outlined. You spend less time because you're constantly fighting and so on. happy mylotting! cheers!

hi firstly im sure every couple has gone thru all this events over and over again. its true bout the arguement thing.having and arguement is a really good communication thing!but of course if the points is right then admit you are wrong and dun act tought and wait for your partner to apologize first onlyyou decided you want to take the chance to tell them that its actually your fault. no point being egoistic. always knows wat is best for the relationship and that they do need some sacrifices to make it a wonderful event. and im sure you will be a GREAT lover IF you really want to. its just that how willing are you to treasure the relationship. when arguements happens,it doesnt matter who takes the first time to reconcile.still it contribute to the relationship.always remember why you fall in love in the first place. take care and love is all around

Thanks for sharing this article! It's really interesting, it made me think about what my boy friend and I are going through in our present relationship. I can't imagine myself getting married yet, but I'd really hope to be in one in the future. It's hard to find that someone who'd understand and take us for all our imperfections, but I'm still optimistic that maybe someday (hopefully my boyfriend) I'd end up meeting someone like that.

I am not buying 4 and 5. My husband and I don't fight. We argue, but we never get into any real FIGHTS, because we have both been through that in the past, and not wanting to repeat that again, we short-stop them before they escalate into anything. As for #5, we're always thinking things through. Thinking things through is what made our relationship last as long as it has, and what is going to hold it together forever. If Hubby and I ever stoped thinking, we'd step into something stupid, and mess things up. LOL

yes, I believe that this is true. when you stop building your relationship and become stagnant you start to lose your partner. I think that first sign is the end already. If you dont' want to work on your relationship anymore then you start to let go and eventually end that relationship.

stay and worked it out is not a good idea but i would say if you too are too much pride with each other, that is the problem and more of all us in these world, why others don't care..

^_^ i know how u feel. i also feel that way sometimes especially #s 1 and 2. hehehe although we're still on the process of courtship, i sometimes feel that i have to stop this stuff because i think i am not inlove with him anymore but the moment i try to tell him to stop,there's something, which i cannot explain, that keeps on pushing me not to. maybe im just confused for now. :) sooner or later, i'l find whats best for us. godbless u a happy lovelife sarahruthbeth.

When it comes to relationships, and the longevity and strength of a relationship there is a very big factor that plays a significant role on how you know he or she is the one. "FULL LOVE". I always use a certain technique when I sometimes have concerns about my girlfriend's full love for me. I stare directly into her eyes, so then I know her love for me is equal if she returns that same look. Let me explain. Me and my girl will have disagreements and argue from time to time, but when it's all over and I give her that look, she will respond right back at me, then we will make up. (if she isn't on her cycle,lol). Look into their eyes. If you don't get back that same response or if you feel no nerves at all, then I think you really have to get to the bottom of it and just simply ask: Are u in love with me? I mean Full love? If they hesitate just a little, then they have doubts about the relationship. Always remember that the eyes are the window to the soul. Look hard and it will always show you the truth.

Everything applies to my relationship. My husband and I don't fight. I feel that he's changed and he denies it. I might've changed myself but I try to be self aware. We never fought and don't like to fight. We do argue, but I tend to just get so annoyed that I just say to myself "forget it." I'm beginning to find myself frequently saying that. We use to talk about what we don't like about each other and how we can change to better our relationship. But lately, I feel like my husbands being a d!ck. He wasn't like that before I married him. In addition, when I make small talk with him, he talks to me as if I'm an idiot. He doesn't even try to strike up a conversation. If I don't start talking, the house is completely silent. When we get into an argument, he never thinks he's wrong. He's getting so arrogant and I just give up talking to him. When I came across this article, I just feel like it's written about us. I find myself looking up divorce procedures. This is how bad it is.
