8. Your gut is telling you something’s not right

Sometimes, one of the most obvious signs of divorce is your intuition. If you’ve known your wife for a while, you can most likely tell when she is lying. If not, you can at least tell something is off with her.

If you ask her what’s wrong and she tells you something along the lines of, “Nothing, I’m just tired,” or “I just had a bad day,” listen to your spidey sense. Is there something going on that she is not telling you?

In other words, looking for signs of divorce may help you, but don’t forget to also trust your gut. Many men lose confidence when their marriage is on the rocks, but don’t ever discredit your own intuition.

This book can help those trapped in toxic marriages understand when the relationship is no longer working and is even doing more harm than good.
