Usually, there are signs to indicate that.

#1

Coldness, not communication, anger outbursts, unable to express emotions, silence treatment ..

#2

When they call you saying they'll be home in 15 minutes and to be ready to go out and never show up, never call back and just leave you hanging, worried sick that they might have been in an accident or arrested so you literally start calling their work buddies, every hospital in the county as well as every jail and a day and a half later when they finally come home and they just shrug it off like, "meh, I didn't like your attitude"... Trust me, it's over.

When you're not excited to see them anymore. I've watched my sister go through this for months. The day she said "I don't even want to go, it's just gonna end in a fight." I knew they were done.
If you're dreading seeing your partner, you're not in a good relationship. I just wish she would realize that herself. Sucks to watch someone cling to something they have outright admitted while drunk that they no longer want.

When you’re too tired to keep putting in the effort to make things better. Be it communicating problems on your mind, being content to go the extra mile just to surprise them with a smile, when you start thinking grinning and bearing it is easier than working things out together, your relationship is on its last legs

When they are inconsiderate and selfish for one. If you are this way, nobody wants that in a relationship. Also, jealousy. If you have to walk on eggshells because someone else always is jealous, it is annoying af!!! People, if you are in a relationship with a pain in the a*s like this, let them know where the door is. It is so annoying when someone is this insecure to were they become toxic like this. If you are this person, please resolve your issues before getting into a romantic relationship.

When your priority changes. This is not always easy to notice, and you might just ignore the signs and sweep everything under the rug. But perhaps in the past they moved mountains to meet you, organized their weekend around going on a date with you even if you told them it's fine you can reschedule. Yeah, when they start not having time, or rescheduling left and right, you know that your priority has changed. It's not always noticable because it's very possible that they're still happy to see you and so it's easier to not notice or ignore. But take a look at when did you spend time together in the past period. Did they prioritize spending time with you? Or did they spend time with you when they had nothing else and/or you organizer your schedule around accomodating to theirs? If the answer is the lattet then the relationship is not going to last. And don't be fooled by the fact that they enjoy your company. People enjoy watching YouTube on their phone while they're already looking for a newer model, the old phone they really don't like anymore is still better than not having a phone at all. Don't be their old phone they don't really care about anymore. You're worth much, much more. If you're on the bottom of their priority list then you should put them on the bottom of yours and find the door.

#11

When either one or both start taking and sharing more with someone else than with each other.

#12

From the outside perspective? When the partner's criticism is met with a mixture of resignation and passive aggressiveness. You feel they had the same conversation a hundred times and there is a refusal to change, learn or even listen. I've seen this a few times and all of this relationships ended within the next few months.

Resentment. It usually starts with a lack of communication and then it gets bigger from there. Communicate

#15

When one or both partners begin checking out. They don't share details about thier day, they are uninsterested in conversation, they don't bother fighting because they simply do not care any more so it is not worth the effort.

#16

Coercion.
Some context: not the "Oh, it's healthier if you sleep less hours" or the "I'm looking out for you" kind.
I mean the "I'm going to laugh at you while you're having a panic attack because I said I'd sneak something into your food, if you loved me you'd let me" kind.
