Despite the fact that I have considered divorce following hubby affair and endless lies, I believe most marriages can be saved. I'm learning to put what I can't cope with into God's hands and keep praying that He will change what I cannot. He has promised a better time ahead and I cling to that promise because it's all I've got. God can see the whole picture, only He knows what is going on in my man's soul, and only He can bring about restoration.

When you have absolutely nothing in common anymore. Both of you do separate things and when you are together all you do is argue. It's very hard on the kids. I would say the real biggie is when one has an affair. A marriage never truly ever gets over an affair even if the wronged spouse says I forgive you and we'll work things out.

Im not gonna read everyones replies so will say sorry now if im repeating.
For me, i knew it was over when i couldnt bear being touched by him. And i would look at other men and embark on passionate affairs. I would look at him and feel love as a sibling than a partner. We wouldbicker and argue and lost the will to communicate.
Have you asked him how he feels? Maybe he feels the same but doesnt want to say and wants to work things out. If you have been married sometime, surely its worth working things out. If you have had to ask this question, it means you yourself dont really know and there is something there worth building on

I knew my last marriage was over when I realized that my husband was bad for the kids. I hadn't realized how negative his influence was becoming to them, but I began to see how immature and selfish he was, and how he made them all very insecure and shattered their self-esteem. He refused to get counseling, and threatened to sue my son's counselor for malpractice for even asking about the father/son relationship and requesting the father come in for some family sessions. I knew then he would never change, never take responsibility and in order for the kids to thrive, my husband had to go. Later on, I was sorry I hadn't made that choice years earlier.

When the judge signs the divorce papers or you receive a death certificate. Anything before that is up to the 2 individuals involved.

Well for me it was when i just had no oompf left in me to care about the marriage, i really didn't mind that we were seperating, after all the trying i had done i was worn out.
i didn't care what he was doing, when he did it or whom with and i didn't think about him during the day or miss him when he was not there.
That for me is how i knew it was well and truely over.

You know your marriage is over when the two of you aren't communicating, one of you is sleeping on the couch; the other on the bed, you are no longer being intimate and hardly ever see eachother.

What about 'where there's life there's hope'?
It's all too easy to bow out of relationships. If you have any feelings left, communicate them to your partner. If your partner is turning away from you then your must know what they truly feel inside.
But you must always remain true to yourself as well.
Best of luck.

you know it's over when he starts cheating on you or stays out longer after work, when all that you talk about turns into an arguement and sex seems disgusting to you and both him togeather and no matter what each of you do to make things work out nothing works and when you can't stand each other anymore, please don't wait to see if abuse occurs . it's time to leavr if you can't get along togeather and trust each other any more..
