1: you realize that you have nothing in common and nothing to talk about. Your conversations are dry and you realize that you don't want to talk to them anymore.

2: you get very irritable around them. Not like a pms irritated, but a "Why won't you stop breathing" irritated.

3: you find yourself not wanting to be around them ever. You don't want to talk to them and you don't want to look at them.

4: you're now forcing yourself back in saying that you are good together. You try to remember a simpler time when you thought you liked them.

5: Everyone else is suddenly much more attractive. You find yourself flirting with your eyes and sending smiles across rooms.

6: you despise being around them. Their scent, their voice, their touch, their entire being. You just don't want to be around them.

7: you remind yourself yet again, that you are committed to someone, but then you start to question why.

8: you talk about breaking up more than anything else. It's the most common topic you've ever talked about now that you think about it.

9: you start thinking about different ways to break up with them. In person? A post- it note? A message delivered to their mom?

10: you want to be around their family more than you want to be around them.

11: You don't find them interesting anymore. You jumped in quickly, so you didn't know what to expect and now you're regretting it.

12: you're starting to realize the true opportunity cost. People around you are now available and all you had to do was wait a few seconds.

13: you don't think about them until you're lonely. You forget that you were suppose to love them.

14: you only text each other good morning and good night, and you don't feel bad about it.
