8 Common Signs Your Marriage is Headed Toward Divorce

Posted By Stepniak & Park || 29-Jan-2019

Experience issues in your marriage are common—and overcoming those problems can encourage growth and make your marriage even stronger. However, there are some problems that indicate you are well on your well toward a divorce.

The following are the most common signs your marriage is headed toward divorce:

  1. You are unhappy – When the relationship is going well, there is nothing but joy and love. However, every couple has fights and disagreements from time to time. But if your partner is hostile or critical most of the time, or unable to compromise or see eye-to-eye on many issues, your unhappiness is the sure sign that the marriage is coming to an end.
  2. There is a lack of communication – Although your communication doesn’t have to be meaningful every single time, but if you never talk with your spouse about anything besides superficial topics (i.e. what’s the weather like today or who’s turn is it to purchase the toilet paper), then this could create disconnection and distance in your marriage. Additionally, if a difference of opinions results to regular fights, couples who experience this often hesitate to discuss their issues because it would lead to another fight. If you and your spouse are unable to have a conversation about the root cause of a problem, then it’s time to file for divorce.
  3. You’re spending significantly less time together – While it is perfectly fine not to spend every moment together, you should want to spend your free time with your spouse and enjoy being in their presence more than any other person. However, if you find yourself wanting to hang out with your friends more or avoid going inside your home after coming home from work, this could be a sign that you no longer find joy in your spouse’s company.
  4. You don’t want to put in the work to improve your marriage – In order for a marriage to work, both spouses need to provide equal effort. One person can’t do all the work. If you no longer have the motivation to work on your marriage, it is best to try to figure out why before filing for divorce. But if your or your spouse refuses to make an effort to improve the marriage or fails to go to counseling, then the end is near.
  5. You are not sexually interested – It is common for the excitement of a new relationship to wear off, especially when we start to lose energy and our bodies grow older. However, still having some desire to regularly engage in physical intimacy is an important factor in a healthy relationship. But if your emotional intimacy is staggeringly low that physical intimacy seems impossible to accomplish, it is a terrible sign for things to come if you stay married.
  6. You fantasize about being in another relationship – Finding other people attractive or having a desire to be apart from your spouse is quite normal. But if you or your spouse starts fantasizing about being in a relationship with anyone other than your spouse—and even having intimate thoughts of what life would be like—then the bonds of your marriage are becoming weak.
  7. You or your spouse has an addiction – Almost half of all marriages that end in divorce are because at least one partner has an addiction. When trying to capture that next drink or high is more important than your spouse, then you will never have the energy and time to try to fix your marriage.
  8. Infidelity – When you or your spouse have an affair for sexual intimacy, or even emotional support, the marriage is likely coming to an end. Once a partner is unfaithful in a marriage, chances are they will be more likely to continue to be unfaithful.

If any of these signs are apparent in your marriage and you are interested in seeking a divorce, contact our Daytona Beach divorce lawyer at the Law Offices of Robert Stepniak and schedule a free consultation today.
