(SNN) - All of the discussion on marriage equality has me thinking ... everyone really should have the right to marry. Otherwise they will be forced to send out for aggravation.
What is being neglected in the discussion are the ways to tell that a relationship may be coming to its final conclusion
The following are subtle cues that it could be over:
- You ask him whether anything is bothering him and he sets fire to your dress.
- You discover he has joined the group “Parents Without Partners”
- He occasionally introduces you to his friends and business associates as his “former wife.”
- He rents a giant billboard reading, “I LOVE YOU MYRNA.” Your name is not Myrna.
- You return from shopping and find all the locks have been changed. As you search for an open window, you see him inside ... “napping” with an old army buddy.
If any of these apply, I suggest it may be time to meet up for a teensie tiny chat at the coffee shop.
But mind you ... these are only guidelines!
