If your not spending as much time together lately? Or not doing things as a couple anymore? Perhaps it's time to re-evaluate the marriage. Maybe you know a couple going through these issues below. Here are some signs to look for according to Astrofame magazine.... - Arguing all the time- (that one seems pretty obvious) without ever working out the problems. - Lack of communication- no sharing or interest about each other's life. - A sudden interest about your finances- checking out how divorce would impact their bank balance. - Lack of intimacy- may mean no longer a physical attraction. - Acting distant- always preoccupied - Preparing for a single life- taking an out of the ordinary interest in their physical appearance to get ready to return to dating again. Maybe you have noticed these behaviors among couples you knew who eventually divorced. What do you feel are the worst signs of a deteriorating marriage?

Yes, I agree. Marriage is a partnership and sometimes hard work!

In my opinion lack of common interests and lack of communications always bring to a divorce.

@dgobucks226 If two people have no common interests, they will end up going out with friends who have common interests and sooner or later they will find someone with whom they would like more to share their life.

Yes, I agree having nothing in common makes for a lonely marriage and lack of connection. Communicating is absolutely essential, thanks

@LadyDuck Yes, very true. Couples have to enjoy doing things together. Not everything, but even something as simple as watching a favorite TV show together provides a connection. Having something for both to look forward to can add fulfillment and happiness to a marriage..

Lack of communication. Lack of affection. Lack of trust. Just a lack of everything.

It's very sad when couples have to go through a divorce. I don't think I could be bothered. I'll just stick to the husband I've got - and be thankful that he is so kind and considerate.

Kindness and consideration are very terrific qualities in a partner. A nice foundation to start with for sure

@dgobucks226 Getting married for the wrong reasons and never really liking each other let alone learn to love each and one hiding secrets from the other.

@dgobucks226 You are very right DB. I got married because I wanted to have children and give them the love I never had so I felt no one else would ask and married the only one that did and that was a disaster and so now I will never marry again. I need to protect my cat and here I live in a building full of those that act like babies and do not care about anyone but themselves. If I could afford to move and found the right place we would.

@Hannihar Yes, I found this article very interesting and accurate regarding why divorce can happen. Finding a partner is not easy. If it was there would be few getting divorces. Sorry to hear about your building situation. At times good friends are as hard to find as the right marriage partner.

I think constant fighting is one of the worst reasons too. It just leads to them hating each other.

These aren't necessarily signs of impending divorce. My husband and I spend most of our days apart so sometimes we don't have much to talk about. I occasionally ask about the finances because he is the one who does all of the bills. Doesn't mean I am looking to find my "escape fund". Just trying to see where we are at. I lost 45 pounds 2 years ago--for ME and my health, not because I was trying to look better to catch someone.

I don't think this list is an absolute for everyone. But I do feel it has substantial merit. I don't know, but perhaps you and your husband connect on other levels besides a lot of communication. And that's fine. But, with divorce rates between 40-50% (according to American Psychological Association) and higher with 2nd and 3rd marriages, something must be causing couples to end marriages? What do you think it is?

the worst sign of deteriorating marriage is when your partner can no longer appreciate the little things you do to him nor no longer appreciates you as a person.

If you mean being taken for granted that can be a big problem. No one would like that!

Very good article and I love the picture. I love playing scrabble. I agree with the lists in this article. All signs of distance.

Thanks. I agree many of those items just drive a wedge in a marriage.
