We Have All Heard People Tell Their Stories Of Their Break Up

We have all heard people tell their stories of their break up and in hindsight there were all these signs that things were going downhill, they just did not pay attention to them.

If we could only know what the signs are that we should be looking for, potentially a lot of relationships could be saved, assuming they were worth saving. There are some tell tale signs that a relationship may be in trouble that you may want to keep in mind, because in some cases you can act accordingly and intervene before things get out of hand and cannot be repaired.

Talks Scare Your Partner. If every time you sit down under the pretense of discussing your relationship your partner looks freaked out, this could be a bad sign. Generally if both people are on the same page you do not even need to have these talks, but if you feel as though certain things need to be discussed from time to time and your partner tenses up and just appears scared out of their mind, it could be an indication they are not ready to be as serious as you are, or that they have already checked out.

There is More Wrong than Right. Or, at least that is the perception of one or both of you. So many times we have the tendency when a relationship is not healthy to focus on what is wrong rather than what is right. There are things wrong in every relationship, but usually these are counter balanced by what is right. If the focus is always on what is wrong and you can never celebrate what is going good between the two of you, it is generally not a good sign.

Fighting is the Cornerstone of Your Relationship. If fighting and arguments have become the mainstay of your relationship, that is a problem. When you cannot discuss things and everything turns into an argument, there has been a fundamental breakdown of the fabric of your relationship and you need to get help or you will be finding that you are getting out before you know it. People who fight all the time do not stay together, so learn to talk and discuss things in a more respectful and healthy manner if you want it to work.

You No Longer Care to Spend Time Together. Any relationship requires that you make time for one another. Even the busiest couples, who are happy, are able to find time for one another. If one or both of you makes excuses not to spend time together this is generally a sign that one or both of you has checked out of the relationship and the only thing that has not been done is the official act of breaking up.

These are some of the most common signs that a relationship is going to come to an end if both of you do not commit to making things right. Even if you do want things to work, sometimes the timing is just not right and they will not work out. If you are worried about your relationship, these are some definite signs to consider.
