Man whatever to the article... Here are the real signs your relationship is a wrap.
He starts hanging out with the mistress... with you around.
He introduces a new 'friend' that you've never seen or heard of before, and they come equipped with inside jokes and all sortsa shit in common. Not only that, but she always seems more than happy to meet him (errr uhhh... both of you) anywhere to hang out at anytime.
She starts moving her stuff to one centralized location in the house.
Okay, a walk out is being planned here. The slow paced moving of all her important stuff to the bedroom closet may be a little hard to catch, but couple that with the duffle bag of extra clothes in her trunk and her physical distance she seems to maintain, plan on not seeing her one day next week when you get home from work.
Unexplained long-term 'family issues'
Now you know good and damn well that her and her mom and stepdad don't see eye-to-eye... never have. Also, she has never gone to any distant family type shit. Hell, certain members of her family have died, and you guys didn't go to the funeral, but now more than ever there are reasons to be around them that 'you just wouldn't understand' or 'it's complicated right now.' It's as good as over.
Bringing up memories of the shit you used to do.
Okay, if your significant other continually talks about things you used to do that made them happy to you, and/or others while you're sitting there, if you don't get back to that... kiss them goodbye.
Hello... just calling to see if you're still alive!!!
If you are doing all of calling or texting, and keep recieving short yes or no responses or get the ol' 'I'm reaallllly busy right now' every fuckin' time, this shit is about to be over on account of that person finding someone else to talk and text with.
Hi... I'm Joey Greco...
If contacting the T.V. Show Cheaters seems more and more like a legitimate solution, this relationship will indeed end, and likely on camera.
Everybody you know hates him/her...
And the feeling is mutual. Look, it really is only a matter of time before those reasons for the hate start to feel very justified in your own mind. Once the arguments start involving the phrase 'See, this is why nobody likes yo' ass...' Let the countdown begin.
Strong fantasies of living alone.
Slowly but surely, you will make this fantasy come true eventually. It's like wanting to leave your job, you'll get to the point where you'll get responses from applications you don't even remember filling out... but you can see the positives in every position offered.
Wait... did we have sex last night???
That's it. Shut the whole thing down.
