The Four Signs Of Possible Divorce and What To Do About Them


Divorce is a difficult and emotional decision, and it's not one that anyone takes lightly. However, there are times when a relationship reaches a point where it can feel like the only option is to end it. Often, these couples come to me and realise that this is not the case, there are solutions that aren't obvious to the couple themselves that become apparent when having couples coaching.


If you are wondering whether your marriage is heading in that direction, there are a few signs to look out for.

In this blog post, we'll explore the four signs that you need some help with your relationship.


1. Communication Breakdown

Communication is the foundation of any healthy relationship. When communication breaks down, it can be a sign that the marriage is in trouble. If you find that you and your partner are no longer talking or that your conversations are always filled with tension and conflict, it's a sign that something is amiss. Lack of communication can lead to feelings of frustration, resentment, and disconnection, which can ultimately lead to divorce.


2. Constant Conflict

All couples have disagreements and arguments from time to time. However, if you find that you and your partner are constantly fighting and unable to resolve your differences, it's a sign that there may be deeper issues at play. Constant conflict can be exhausting and emotionally draining, and if left unresolved, it can lead to the breakdown of the marriage.


3. Loss of Intimacy

Intimacy is an important part of any romantic relationship. When couples are intimate, they feel connected and close to each other. If you find that you and your partner are no longer intimate, or that your physical relationship has become routine or non-existent, it can be a sign that there are deeper problems in the marriage. Loss of intimacy can lead to feelings of loneliness, isolation, and disconnection.


4. Growing Apart

As individuals, we are constantly growing and changing. Sometimes, this growth can cause couples to grow apart. If you find that you and your partner are no longer on the same page or that your goals and values no longer align, it can be a sign that the marriage is in trouble. Growing apart can lead to feelings of disillusionment and dissatisfaction, and if left unchecked, it can ultimately lead to divorce.


As a relationship coach, I can help couples address the four signs of divorce by providing a safe and supportive space to explore their feelings and concerns.


Here are some ways I can help:


1. Communication Breakdown - I can help couples improve their communication skills by teaching them effective communication techniques. This may include active listening, using "I" statements, and learning how to express emotions in a healthy way.


2. Constant Conflict - I can help couples identify the underlying issues that are causing conflict and work with them to find solutions. This may involve learning conflict resolution skills, exploring each other's perspectives, and finding ways to compromise.


3. Loss of Intimacy - I can help couples explore the reasons why intimacy has diminished and work with them to find ways to rekindle their physical and emotional connection. This may include identifying barriers to intimacy, exploring each other's love languages, and finding ways to prioritize intimacy in the relationship.


4. Growing Apart - I can help couples identify the ways in which they have grown apart and work with them to find common ground. This may involve exploring each other's goals and values, finding shared interests, and learning how to support each other's personal growth.


In addition to these specific areas, I can also help couples improve their overall relationship skills by teaching them how to build trust, practice forgiveness, and maintain a positive attitude toward each other. By working together with a relationship coach, couples can gain the tools and skills they need to overcome the four signs of divorce and build a stronger, healthier relationship.
