12 Warning Signs Your Relationship Might Be in Trouble by Nicholl McGuire

 No one wants their relationship to end – yet, each year, nearly 800,000 marriages take a turn for the worse and end in divorce. While there are many factors that can lead to the dissolution of a marriage or long-term relationship, it might be helpful to know some of the common signs that suggest your relationship isn't likely to make it in the long run.

Below, we've compiled a list of twelve red flags you should watch out for if you think your relationship might be in trouble:

  1. Denial – One partner refusing to acknowledge important issues or problems, especially ones that are causing distress in the other partner, is often a sign that the relationship won't last much longer.
  2. Defensiveness – When one partner is consistently defensive and unwilling to take responsibility for their part in the relationship, it can cause the other partner to feel unsupported and eventually lead to a breakup.
  3. Assumptions – Unchecked assumptions about the intentions of your partner or what they should be doing in the relationship can also create tension and resentment, making it difficult to sustain the relationship over time.
  4. Lying – Dishonesty, whether it's small white lies or bigger deceptions, can cause serious trust issues that are hard to overcome in a long-term relationship.
  5. Controlling behaviors – If one partner is trying to control the other partner's behavior or decisions, this could be a sign that the relationship is not healthy and could lead to a breakup.
  6. Emotional abuse – Emotional abuse, whether it's verbal or mental, can cause serious harm to a relationship by creating an atmosphere of fear and mistrust between partners.
  7. Competitive – When partners start competing with each other instead of supporting one another, it can create a toxic environment and lead to the breakdown of a relationship.
  8. Unforgiving – Not being able to forgive one another's mistakes or shortcomings can create an unbearable situation where neither partner feels fully appreciated or respected.
  9. Ignoring – When one partner stops listening to the other or seems uninterested in their perspectives, it can be extremely difficult for them to work through problems and make a relationship last.
  10. Pouting – If one partner becomes resentful or sulks whenever they don't get their way, it can be difficult for the other partner to negotiate with them in a healthy way.
  11. Backstabbing – Talking behind your partner's back to friends or family members is never a good sign and can cause serious damage to the relationship.
  12. Manipulations – Trying to manipulate or guilt-trip your partner into doing what you want can be a sign that the relationship is built on an unhealthy foundation and may not survive in the long run.

Being aware of these warning signs can help you identify potential problems early on in a relationship and work through them before they become too serious. With the right kind of proactive communication, it's possible to get back on track and save your relationship. But if you find that these red flags are consistently present in your own relationship, it might be time to consider getting out before things reach a breaking point.

According to a recent study from Harvard University, the leading causes of divorce are lack of commitment, infidelity, and communication issues. If you recognize any of these issues in your own relationship, it could be a sign that you need to take action and start addressing the underlying problems before they get worse.

Whether it's seeking help from a qualified therapist or simply taking some time apart to get perspective on your situation, the sooner you act, the better chance you have of saving your relationship before it becomes too late.

Relationship problems don't usually resolve themselves overnight, but with commitment and effort, it's possible to repair the damage and reignite the spark that brought you together in the first place. Taking a few simple steps now may just be what saves your relationship down the road.
