Cupid’s Advice:
Marriage takes tons of work and effort that should be forth without hesitation. You and your partner are struggling to keep the marriage alive and are losing hope. Well, sometimes it is best to let it go because there is nothing there anymore that is worth fighting for. Cupid has some signs to recognize when knowing whether to give up on your marriage:
1. Increase in arguments: There is constant bickering between the two of you and by the end of it, nothing has been resolved. You cannot even start a simple conversation without tension and anger eventually coming about. Asking for favors is completely out of the question because you are expecting backlash or complaints. These are a few examples that your marriage has fallen to the rocks and you should possibly consider separation. A marriage is made up of many key components to keep it going: understanding, communication, and giving. Being at each other’s throats on a daily basis is not healthy and will not improve without those components.

2. No love in the air: So long to the romantic dates, gestures, and getaways! You kissed that goodbye once bickering became a daily ritual in your marriage. You are no longer looking at your significant other the same, with the eyes that see nothing but love. Instead, resentment fills them and you would rather not look at your partner at all. These are clear signs to be wary of and you should consider separation for the best.

3. Eyes begin to wander: You begin to notice your partner not the only one who can catch or keep your attention anymore. Thoughts and envisions of being somewhere or with someone else start to form. Do not ignore this or think it is minor. If you or your partner wishes to engage in other affairs, divorce should be considered.
