The break-up of a romantic relationship is probably the most harrowing experience lovers can go through. No one ever really wants it to happen. We can suffer a whole range of emotions from rejection and betrayal to utter devastation. Without doubt, these are feelings we’d rather avoid at all costs if possible.

When a break up does happen, there’s always nagging thoughts in the back of your mind, “I should have seen this coming!” and “Why didn’t I do something to stop it happening?”. Vision is always 20/20 in hindsight!

If you’ve ever experienced a break up before, you know you go through the “I should have done this” and the “I wish I hadn’t done that” phase. A kind of ‘beat myself up’ period!

While it’s always possible for couples who’ve had a relationship split to get back together again, taking steps to prevent a breakup with your partner is a much better course of action. ‘Prevention is better than cure’ is a wise saying!

If you have the feeling that your relationship may be on the rocks, you need to act quickly. It’s vitally important for you to be aware on the warning signs of a possible breakup. You can take positive action to try to stop anything you don’t want to happen in your relationship and stand a better chance of keeping the love you share with your partner strong.

Some of the tell-tale indicators of an imminent breakup may be right there in front of our noses, yet we fail to recognize them for whatever reason. Her are three common forecasters of relationship break-ups.

3 Most Common Warning Signs of a Relationship Breakup

1. Avoidance – This is the most obvious sign of a possible breakup. Your significant other tends to avoid you as well as your phone calls. In fact, if it appears that your partner would rather spend time with other people than with you, then your relationship could be in trouble. For example, if he or she spent only once a week with friends but is now going out with them two or three times a week, that’s a strong warning sign of potential problems.

2. Lack Of Communication – It’s undeniable that good communication is one of the major ingredients of a happy, healthy relationship. There’s something to worry about if you’ve noticed that the lines of communication between you and your partner are becoming strained or, perhaps, even non-existant. For example, if your significant other would rather read a magazine or go to bed early than talk to you or watch a movie together, this could be the beginning of real trouble. This warning sign goes hand-in-hand with ‘avoidance’.

3. Conflicts and Arguments – More frequent displays of argumentative behavior are other warning signs of a possible forthcoming breakup. Let’s be honest, every relationship has its problems. There are very few, if any, relationships where arguments never happen. In a perfect world, arguments wouldn’t happen. It’s just human nature.

However, the key here is how often the arguments are ocurring, and the level of hostility your partner is displaying during these conflicts. Is this behavior escalating? If so, it’s a sure indication of relationship trouble on the horizon.

This is because arguing all the time is a good technique your partner can use to show you that you are not compatible with each other and that you need to end your relationship. In other words, it will help them justify their intentions of breaking up.

It’s obviously essential for you to be aware of the warning signs of a possible breakup just like the ones mentioned above. They can help you to be prepared and may be able to help you stop the break up and the pain that’s associated with it.

However, a word of caution, don’t start reading everything your partner does as a indicator that they’re going to break up with you. Becoming paranoid about what’s a breakup sign and what’s not, can drive you nuts!
