   Jellyrugposted 16 years ago

   First sign is when you want something you can't find in your relationship.
   Second sign is when you doubt your continuance.
   Third sign is when you decide to give up.
   Fourth sign is when both decide to give up.

   I didn't ready page 2 to 8 but a long fight could mean that something seriously irritates the other spouse about you. and it is finally coming out.
   
   Unfortunately, from flipping channels the other night I saw a segment of the Dr. Phil show and if applicable, when kids are involved it's better for them grow up with a broken family than a broken home.  parents living apart. Why put them through constant arguing daily?  hope that helps
   
   
   EDIT:  After seeing your remark. me too,  exact same thing (everyone in her family 7 of Mom's kids) had a divorce and their ex's all said the same thing how about them. I was unfortunately not told the entire truth when I married a foreign girl in the USA, then met her family 1 year later overseas. Live & learn.
   "
   Still we lasted 10 years. I stayed so my kids would have a father and not be raised by a mother with a dysfunctional family."

   Since I've got 6 of 'em (Pam is my 7th wife), I guess I oughta be semi-qualified to comment.  So, by the numbers, but you'll need to remember, these divocrces were mostly all my idea:
   
   1.  She never quit criticizing, refused to grow mentally (while I was doing so by quantum leaps), oh, and did grow wider (very heavy at the end), but as shallow as I was in those days, I wouldn't have left her for that.
   
   2.  We were best of friends and still are, but the first sign was when I moved us to Montana and she got depressed just from living in that state.
   
   I take that back.  The first sign was when she let me know she wasn't all that crazy about sex.
   
   3.  Jealousy, rage (all hers, now, not mine), and assuming that every time I was home 5 minutes late from work I had an affair going on (I wish!). LOL
   
   4.  She told me an hour before we got married that it wasn't going to work.  How's that for an early warning sign?  (Yes, we still did it; couldn't say we weren't warned.)
   
   5.  I was under attack from people who wanted me impoverished, imprisoned, and/or in the grave.  I chose to move out of their sniping range (they're not big travelers, kind of inbred stay-in-one-valley rednecks), and she refused to move with me.
   
   6.  Accepting my offer of a paycheck (I had a thriving business at the time) so she could marry me and move out of Rapid City, South Dakota...and then never so much as filing a single sheet of paper no matter how many times I tried to discuss the problem with her.
   
   No early warning signs with Pam.  Been together almost 13 years now and still joined at the hip.  'Course, she's just as crazy as I am, and I'm sure that helps.

    I would say the first sign of impending divorce is when you expect the marriage to work or succeed on its own.
    
    Marriages don't work. There are no marriages that succeed. There are only people who work on and succeed in their marriages.

          I didn't mean it to be depressing, but really rather empowering. Divorce doesn't just happen as a result of a failed marriage. It can be prevented.
          
          Every marriage that's lasted for life did so not because the marriage work, but because the couples worked on maintaining the lifelong commitments they made.
