can you really see this coming? how would you know that your relationship with someone is about to stop? that he/she is about to leave you? are there really clues or signs?
i'm not that insensitive, but i don't want to start assuming things. i'm starting to get lonely.. help!

I'd say it depends on the relationship. Sometimes one person thinks everything is great and is truly blindsided when the other person leaves them. Other times there are lots of signs. It sounds like you are asking this question because you are worried about a relationship of your own. I'd say if that's the case, you should talk with your partner about it and share your concerns, in a non-accusing way. It's better to know where you stand.

Well, I just meant that you can share your concerns without making it sound like the other person did something wrong. For example, saying that you have been worried that maybe the other person isn't happy with the relationship lately, and try to get them to open up. I don't know your concerns, so it's hard for me to be really specific. But you might be worrying for nothing; maybe your partner has other reasons to be distracted or distant lately. If your concerns are justified, it's best to get things out in the open.

From my own experiences when you share everything,do everything together think on the same wave lenghth think the same thoughts have no secrets.When all this stops,when theirs secrets in the relationship,start going out less with each other run out of things to talk about,this is when(in my opinion) the relationship is starting to become rocky and things will prob end
