* Visiting dating Web sites;
* Not marry you within three years of dating;
* Being secretive;
* Needing more time and space away from you;
* Forgetting important dates;
* Behaviors do not follow words
* Continued friendship with ex partners

* Picking fights about insignificant things;
* Spending less time together;
* Going out with friends more;
* Not expressing love as often;
* A sudden burst of devotion of love (this is usually a guilt response to an upcoming breakup).”………
