I found myself asking him to be nicer to me – he’d already vacated our partnership without realizing it – and I knew that something had changed
In this new week-long series , Guardian writers gather to commiserate on one of life’s most difficult ordeals: getting a divorce
I have many moments that come to mind if I try to pinpoint when, exactly, it was obvious that my marriage was over. There are enough with hindsight that I often think “you idiot, it was so blindingly obvious, how could you miss this stuff?” But at the time, I didn’t see it.
Now though, two incidents stick out. Both are only seen from my perspective and you can bet that my ex would have many of his own, but they’re worth describing if only to show how mundane, how ordinary a breakup can be. There doesn’t need to be dramatic infidelity, or plate-smashing arguments. Sometimes, a handful of tiny sad moments are enough to indicate that a relationship is fragmenting.
One is just a brief snapshot. We were on holiday and I was sitting in an expensive restaurant across from my husband, crying quietly and saying: “Can you please try and be nicer to me?” I don’t remember his reply, or what had happened at dinner to get us to that place, but I now look back and feel stunned that I got to a point in my life where I felt I had to ask my partner to be nice to me. By that point in our relationship, I felt worn down from constantly having to anticipate his changing moods. I would try to buoy us up with irritating cheeriness, and when this inevitably failed, I would become despondent and anxious. Asking my husband to be nicer to me must’ve been some pathetic attempt to plaster over a much bigger crack than I could bear to see at that moment. “Just be nicer and we’ll be OK. That’s all it takes.”
The second memory I have took place a couple of weeks before my husband left. I met him, his sister and a few friends for dinner. I got to the restaurant later than everyone else and as I greeted them both, they burst out laughing. It transpired they both thought my hair looked ridiculous and they’d been making comments about it as I walked through the restaurant.
Perhaps that could have been taken as merely a brief moment of ridicule, or perhaps my hair did look silly. But I saw in that moment a complete lack of kindness. He wasn’t on my team. Without realizing it, he’d already vacated our partnership and in doing so, was able to laugh at me with somebody else. It felt very cold all of a sudden, and I knew that something had changed without my knowledge. It was a moment that seemed to shift my place in the world.
When we went home that night, I slept facing away from him. I felt hurt and embarrassed and yet I still questioned whether I was making too much of it. When he finally did walk out, I was once again struck with disbelief. But for months afterward, these tiny moments would flash into my mind, my brain trying to make sense of it. I was digging up the earth to try and find the roots of our downfall, and these are the memories I came back to. The moments when something in me knew that my husband didn’t love me, not any more.
Before my own breakup, I never much believed people who said that their relationship disintegrated out of the blue. At best, they would insist that they’d been completely happy, at worst that they were “working through their issues together”. I always hazarded that with time, memories of bad moments would come back and they’d nod and think: ah, there it was. The beginning of the end.
These days, I’m much more empathetic towards people who cannot imagine why their partner has walked out. At some point, when the shock has worn off, they’ll remember things that they denied at the time, or failed to fix. That can be even more painful than claiming total surprise. You had agency in this collapse, after all. You did things that helped usher it in, yet you didn’t recognize them in time.

Toxic Love > Harmful Patterns 6 Warning Signs Your is Marriage Over August 6, 2022 430 Comments
430 thoughts on “6 Warning Signs Your is Marriage Over”
These signs a marriage is over will help you see yourself – and your husband – more clearly. It’s easier to get clear a relationship with an external perspective.
You may not be headed for divorce court, so take heart! Almost all relationships touch rock bottom sometimes. The healthiest, happiest marriages rise and come alive again. The wisest couples prepare for the next valley (because life always brings problems and pain. Fortunately, life is made up of more moments of beauty, joy, love, creativity, connection, hope and peace than of pain. Praise be!).
I was inspired to write this article by a reader’s comment. “My husband and I have been together since high school and got married 12 years ago,” said Jessie on How to Know if Your Husband Still Loves You . “We’ve always been comfortable together, but over the past couple years I’ve been getting the feeling he no longer wants to be with me. Our relationship is just one of convenience. All of the signs he doesn’t love me are there, and he says a lot of very very hurtful things to me. He tries to make me feel like a horrible person and he attacks the things I say and do. After he says all these mean things to me he wants me to act as though everything is alright. He says I need to smile and be happy etc. but I’m feeling like I could crawl up in a ball and die. Are these signs your marriage is over? I think so but it would help to get an outside opinion.”
According to marriage expert John Gottman, expressing contempt is one of the signs your marriage is over. Jessie’s husband does this by trying to make her feel like a horrible personal and by saying hurtful things to her.
These warning signs your marriage is over are from relationship counselors and marriage therapists.
While you’re reading through these thoughts, remember that you are the expert on your relationship. You know your husband better than anyone, you know yourself, and you know how your marriage has changed through the years. Don’t let a relationship article take away all your hope for a happy, healthy marriage! Millions of relationships get pulled from the brink of divorce court every year by couples who are committed to rebuilding their marriages.
Contempt is the biggest red flag – the most troubling warning sign that your marriage is over – according to Dr. John Gottman and his four decades of marriage research.
“When we communicate in this state, we are truly mean,” writes Ellie Lisitsa in The Four Horsemen: Contempt on The Gottman Institute’s blog about strengthening relationships. “Treating others with disrespect and mocking them with sarcasm are forms of contempt. So are hostile humor, name-calling, mimicking, and/or body language such as eye-rolling and sneering. In whatever form, contempt is poisonous to a relationship because it conveys disgust. It’s virtually impossible to resolve a problem when your partner is getting the message that you’re disgusted with him or her.”
The reason contempt is such a powerful predictor of divorce is because it is fueled by long-simmering negative thoughts. Contempt is issued in the form of an attack from a position of relative superiority. Words and actions that are fueled by contempt lead to more conflict and disconnection, rather than to reconciliation.
How do you respond to a husband who speaks to you with contempt? Get help. Talk to a marriage counselor, pastor with counseling experience, or a trusted family friend. Learn how to cope with your feelings and how to set boundaries with your husband.
Contempt isn’t a guaranteed sign your marriage is over, but both you and your husband have to see how your words and actions are affecting your marriage. You both need to be willing to work on your relationship. One of the most troubling warning signs your marriage is over is when both you and your husband refuse to accept responsibility.
If you have a feeling your marriage can’t be saved, read How to Know if Divorce is the Best Decision .
Marriage coach Mort Fertel says, “Ironically, communication techniques sometimes give people clarity that they don’t care what their spouse thinks or feels. They ‘understand it’ but it doesn’t matter to them anymore.”
This is ironic because couples often go to marriage counseling to learn to “communicate better.” They learn how to be honest and open about their feelings, they learn how to listen and speak clearly…and they learn that one or both of them has no interest in trying to save their relationship.
Through their newfound communication skills, they learn that they’re too tired to work on their marriage. They simply don’t care anymore. This type of indifference is one of the most important warning signs your marriage is over.
Let’s turn the tables around for a minute. How do you talk to your husband? If you tend to be critical of him, then you’re displaying one of Dr Gottman’s warning signs your marriage is over. Negative or “helpful” feedback can be difficult for husbands to take; criticism will cut him to the core.
“Criticizing your partner is different than offering a critique or voicing a complaint,” writes Lisitsa on Recognizing Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling . “The latter two are about specific issues, whereas the former is an ad hominem attack: it is an attack on your husband at the core. In effect, you are dismantling his whole being when you criticize.”
Are you and your husband critical of each other? It’s not a great way to communicate, but it’s not the biggest warning sign your marriage is over.
“If you find that you are your husband are critical of each other, don’t assume your marriage is doomed to fail,” writes Lisitsa. “The problem with criticism is that, when it becomes pervasive, it paves the way for the other, far deadlier [warning signs of unhealthy marriages]. Criticism makes the victim feel assaulted, rejected, and hurt, and often causes the perpetrator and victim to fall into an escalating pattern where the first horseman reappears with greater and greater frequency and intensity.”
When you were first married, you probably felt understood, heard, and connected with your husband. You were polite. You didn’t want to hurt him – and he was sensitive to your feelings. But time passes, and the stress of daily life and kids and jobs and money and house and aging parents and health issues take a toll…and you find that you don’t have the time and patience it takes to be polite. This isn’t necessarily a sign your marriage is over – it just means you need to make time and effort to communicate with love and respect.
“Sliding Into Marriage” and “Premarital Cycling” are two signs your marriage is over or may be ending, according to Dr. Jeff Larson. He is a relationship expert on premarital predictors of marital happiness, and he shared these two signs of unhealthy relationships on his article 3 Warning Signs That Predict Divorce Early in a Relationship :
Sliding Into Marriage. Couples often have low levels of commitment and end up sliding into marriage instead of making a very conscious and clear decision to be committed to their future spouse. This frequently happens when couples live together, but aren’t officially married yet. The issue is that when this “sliding” occurs, there is less initial commitment and willingness to stick it out when things get tough, which is essential to any marriage. In other words, if you slide into your marriage you may be more likely to slide right on out. A low commitment level is a warning sign your marriage is over (or that it never really began).
Premarital Cycling. Dating, then breaking up, then getting back together before marriage predicts lower marital quality and stability. This is common in relationships, but it doesn’t mean it’s good for them. This kind of instability early on sets a precedent for how open partners can be with each other. i.e. “If I talk about this with him/her, he/she will get overwhelmed because last time I brought something like this up, he/she needed a break from me. I’ll just keep it to myself.” This is a dangerous pattern to fall into. It’s important to feel safe and secure in a marriage for it to stay healthy and have longevity.
On a related note, what are your goals as a couple? Do you have a compatible vision for your future? If you want a four million dollar home with an ocean view and your husband wants a wee cottage in the forest, then you both may feel less committed to your marriage. Why? Because you want different things in life. If your husband wants six children and you’d rather be childfree, then you may have to work harder on overcoming the signs your marriage is over. To keep your marriage strong, you need to agree on your vision as a couple or family – and put each other first.
The good news is that physical and emotional disconnection in a relationship is not one of the major signs your marriage is over! The bad news is that disconnection can lead to more serious problems down the road. The less you connect as a couple, the less healthy your relationship is…and the higher the chances your marriage is slowly ending.
If you’re struggling with these signs your marriage is over, remember that all married couples are forced to deal with difficulties. Many couples have to face the decision to stay married or consider getting a divorce because their problems are bigger than they care to handle.
Don’t fall into the trap of believing you only have two options: staying married and staying unhappy, or getting a divorce and getting happy again. If you’re feeling scared and sad because of these warning signs your marriage is over, then perhaps you’re ready to go beyond that false choice (“Do I divorce so that I can find happiness again, or do I keep the family together and remain unhappy?”).
According to the Couples Institute, most unhappy marriages become happy again, if couples can stick it out. While some divorces are necessary, many marriages can be repaired.
“It may be difficult to face the issues that you and your spouse are struggling with, but research suggests that couples who can manage to stay together usually end up happier down the road than couples who divorce,” writes Dr. Deborah Hecker on Should You Divorce or Save Your Marriage? “If partners choose to invest in their relationship and make needed changes instead of repeating their mistakes, they might be able to avoid an unnecessary divorce. And if they do finally decide to divorce, their personal work in couples therapy might increase their chance of a successful marriage next time.”
If your husband had an affair and is leaving you, then you’ve gone beyond the typical “signs your marriage is over.” The bad news is that infidelity can damage your relationship beyond repair – especially if your husband leaves you for the other woman.
If your husband had an affair and wants to rebuild your relationship, then crack open the champagne and celebrate! The good news is that marriage infidelity by itself is not a sign your marriage is over. Many couples survive marital unfaithfulness, and many have an even stronger bond because of the cheating.
What’s the difference between infidelity as a sign your marriage is over versus infidelity as a turning point towards a healthier, stronger relationship? You and your husband’s intentions for your future. Cheating in and of itself won’t necessarily end your marriage…it’s how you and your husband clean up after the infidelity that determines if you’ll stay together.
“In my work doing marriage coaching, I have noticed that very often the turning point in a marriage is when a couple hits rock bottom,” says marriage coach Mort Fertel. “It’s not until they’ve been through the worst that things start to get better.”
Don’t despair if infidelity is a factor in your marriage. Mort says cheating husbands are more likely to build stronger relationships – if they are genuinely sorry and sincere about saving their marriages. However, if your spouse cheated, you and he will need to do some serious work on moving forward in peace, forgiveness, and love.

Hi I can say love is not as stronger as before when we got married. I am Filipino and my husband is Indian. For starters, there was already so much lies form both sides. Me for not telling him my status in New Zealand (means if I am going back to NZ or not, and mostly financial matters). Him, on the other side, he has cheated on me multiple times with the same girl. Mind you, I caught him just a week before marriage and he vowed he will not do it again, but he failed miserably with his promise. He made me a fool in believing that he was faithful from top to bottom, until I found out again. Secondly, he is physically abusive. He has done more than what other husbands I thought they’re capable of. Name it, choked me to almost death, slapped me at the back of my head, hit me with an object, slapped my face near the ears, which you can imagine hurts so bad, he has thrown things at me, and spit on me. He has called me all the ugly and demeaning names you can possibly hear from hell. Calling me slut to being a fucker. He always blames me why he followed me where I am currently residing cause apparently he was stupid to fall in love with me. Also, he has disrespected my parents by calling them names. He is jobless at the moment and he blames it on me. I have tried to do everything, from pleasing his family to becoming 360 degrees of what I call myself. I have put his needs before mine and my parents. I have shown care to him whenever he tells me he is feeling unwell. I take initiative in pampering him, even if it is beyond my budget, so that he will not think he is living less than what he used to live in NZ. He has insulted me constantly daily basis. He does not satisfy me even in physical sense. I love him, but I do not think for once he does love me. I believe the reason why he is still staying with me is because he does not want to face his family and be told that he has done the worst decision of his life – and that’s choosing to marry me.
I am drained, emotionally, mentally, psychologically, and physically. I am working two jobs at the moment, and with me having sleeping problems, I do not get enough sleep, but still I am doing everything to make him comfortable.
Yes, I do not trust him, after what he has done to me and I believe I have that very right to question him of what he was/is doing but he blames this on me. I told him I am tired of this marriage but he does not want to let go of me. He told me he would rather kill me than being separated with me. I fear for my life as he I do not know if he is capable enough to provide me a safe and
