First Signs.........

[travelmate2002]

Hi people, thought we should have a thread that lets people know what should be the first signs to watch out for that says a relationship could be in trouble. Folks contributing with first hand experiences will help. Sure many of them would be well documented by now such as 'unexplained expenses', 'sudden overnight trips' etc but who knows as the list grows what other signs could be in the offing.

That would be the other half started to be picky and gets angry very easily.

Buying new lingerie.

Lack of communication.

Sudden forgetfulness.

Changes in sleeping patterns.

Becoming more secretive.

Changing passwords.

This may sound nasty but its not meant that way ...the first sign would be that you look at a list like this to justify a feeling you have.

These are things I would notice...

New taste in music
"Gut" instinct
New friends
Sleeping with your cell phone if they never have before
New look
New clothes
New Hair/make up/clothes

Basically the key would be "new" behavior with no reason behind it... cause sometimes people just do have new things in their lives, sometimes it might be a clue

[gridiron]

Makes excuses for why they can't talk to you at such-and-such time, why they were unavailable when you called..

Tex messages/calls/emails go unanswered..

They don't want to look you in the eyes when you're talking to them..

Easily irritable, anxious, never appear to be calm in your presence..

An unexplained excited glint in their eye and spring in their step that hasn't been there for a while. The body can't lie.

That they frequent sites like this one.
That they fiddle with their wedding band!!!!

They smile more at the text messages they're focussed on than your conversation.
