The beginning of the END

Most people would say they didn't see their divorce coming and I think if you are going through a divorce we are old enough to tell the truth. Before I ever said "I DO" I knew how it would end, that is not to say I didn't work to change the outcome, sometimes we try to hold on to the one thing GOD himself is trying to take us away from.
Before I continue, side note, if you want your relationship to work you need GOD, period. Even if you don't believe in a supreme being, you need him in your marriage, GOD in is simplest and most beautiful form is Love and without love, a marriage will fail.
5 Signs your marriage will end in divorce

1. You married for Lust not Love: and little do most people know there is a difference, when you love someone if they do things that hurt you, you will be okay with walking away. When you lust after someone, you feel like you can never go without them and the thought of losing them cripples you. Love should never leave you wanting, it should surround you and breath life into you.

2. Petty Arguments: cast out your pride, nothing should come between you and those you love, not pee on the toilet seat because they forgot to lift it up, nothing. If you and your partner are arguing over every tiny detail, you are missing the big picture. If a little wave can cast you over board how do you expect to survive a storm.

3. Selfishness: huge problem, you should wake up everyday and think how can I make my spouse happy not how can my spouse make me happy. If your focus is not on your spouse, they very well may choose someone else to put their focus on, not all but some.

4. Competition: now I have a very competitive spirit but you should never make your spouse feel like they need to compete with you. Marriage is a partnership, working together for the betterment of the team, not who can out do whom. Do not keep tally in your marriage of who did what, whether it is good or bad, do for them not for reward but just to see them happy.

5. Dishonesty: your spouse is your other half, you wouldn't lie to yourself, though some do, so you should never lie to  your other half no matter what. Some would disagree but lying causes distrust, without trust a marriage will never work. If they do not trust your words, how can they believe your heart.

Now there are so many more reasons but these five will kill a marriage before it even has a chance to be considered a marriage. Money and all that come later, but if you see any of this in your marriage, stop it immediately or your marriage will end itself.
