Marriage is a commitment like no other and, for some, it does not end how it started. In latest celebrity news, since the season 3 finale of Married at First Sight, reality TV celebrity couple David Norton and Ashley Doherty have not been as successful as fans once hoped. According to UsMagazine.com, the newlyweds had a rough start to their marriage due to David seeking out contact from another woman. As the season began to air, the couple decided to remain amicable, but due to fan backlash, things turned for the worst. David admitted that his marriage was nothing more than a piece of paper, and it ended in celebrity divorce.
When is it time to throw in the towel? Cupid has some helpful relationship advice to help through a trying time!
Cupid’s Advice:
Sometimes love is not enough to keep a marriage going strong. If you are wondering if it is time to let go, here are some signs to look out for:
1. Loss of respect: One of the most important parts of a relationship is mutual respect. When respect for one another is lost, there is no reason for either partner to have interest in trying to get back to a healthy place. An environment lacking respect is a toxic situation that is susceptible to chaos and turmoil. Take time to see if there is a lack of respect between you and your partner, and address it if there is.

2. Loss of communication: If your marriage no longer has effective communication, the problems between two partners will continue to increase. Marriage requires open and honest communication. A lack of intimate conversation is a sign that things may be over. Look back on the past few months to evaluate the level of communication you have had with your partner.

3. Loss of physical connection: Couples connect on emotional, mental, and physical levels. Each of these is very important to a healthy marriage, but without physically showing each other that love still exists the relationship has no chance. Physical connection requires a desire to be close with your partner so watch for signs that the desire has been lost.
