When you loss complete interest in your spouse, you're no longer arguing, and you do not have trust in your partner again are all signs of unhealthy marriage.

"After attempting everything possible to get back to a healthy and loving space, if there is a lack of intimacy (either emotional or sexual) and a complete lack of vulnerability from both sides, the door sadly begins to close," says relationship therapist.

Below are warning signs to look out for to avoid divorce in your marriage.

You are not intimate with your partner anymore 

It is completely normal for a couple's sex life to wax and wane over the span of their marriage, but if it dies completely, this could be a sign the relationship is on the decline.

If there is no more intimacy between you and your spouse, it could point to underlying problems such as a lack of interest in your partner, a lack of trust, or disdain. 

You have lost trust in your partner and it cannot be rebuild

Trust is the foundation of a strong relationship, so if you find yourself doubting your partner and suspecting them of lying, this should be cause for concern.

If you find yourself unable to trust your partner even after trying to re-build the connection, signs could be pointing towards a divorce - especially if you've caught your partner cheating or lying in another way. 

"You should be worried] if you find yourself losing trust in what the other person says, such as who they're talking to or who they might be going to see," . Especially if you have caught your partner being dishonest.

You have stopped arguing and stopped fixing problems 

While excessive fighting could be a major sign that your marriage is heading toward a crash, no fighting at all could also be cause for concern.

Once you and your partner stop trying to work through your issues together and instead become apathetic, it indicates a lack of investment in the relationship. 

A complete lack of communication or disinterest in working out conflict is a bad sign, an indication of a failing marriage. 

Your partner is no longer within your 'list of priorities' 

Life as a married adult can come with a plethora of responsibilities, from kids to bills to pay, from work and others. If your spouse isn't on your list of priorities, you will also not priorities your marriage either. .

If you find yourself always thinking about 'I' and not about 'we, this is a good indication your spouse doesn't hold a place of importance in your everyday life. It is a clear indication that your marriage is failing and help is needed before it nosedive and crash.  

Beloved husbands and wives, please take heed on the above points to preserve your marriage and your family, we are bound to have misunderstanding in our relationship, but great care must be taken, and signs like; criticizing each other always, not having sex anymore, having the same argument over and over all the time, or you don't argue anymore, you don't enjoy spending time together, you started keeping secrets, you have started thinking about having an affair, your partner is not the first person you call, must be speedily addressed to rescue the union from collapsing.

The Bible, in Philippians 2:3-9, admonished us as follows:

Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name...
