What are the signs that you should get a divorce?
9 warning signs you may be headed for a divorceYou are not happy. Most of your interactions are not positive. You find reasons to avoid your partner. Your friends or family urge you to end the relationship. Your instincts are telling you to get out. You live like roommates. Everything is hard. One or both have changed values or priorities.
