It’s one of the main reasons older couples get divorced yet it’s not on the radar or thought about at all when we first marry—growing apart.

Makes sense. When we are madly in love and constantly engaging in new experiences as a couple, we cannot imagine growing apart. On top of that, when our lives get hectic, complicated and busier than they should be, we are too caught up in the non-stop to realize how much we might be growing apart. Until we are living separate lives under the same roof. Yikes.

Sometimes the very things we find attractive in our spouse may actually be warning signs they may not be great traits to maintain a healthy marriage. Those high expectations that make him a success in business, may turn to unnecessary pressure in a crisis. That dramatic flair that makes him or her exciting, may actually keep him from being a comfort to you in a time of need.

Here are five warning signs that your spouse may not be good in a crisis.

A crisis can come at any time in your life no matter who you are. it is a normal part of life that can be a blessing in disguise or a complete nightmare. It’s like a hurricane that leaves line of destruction of everything in its path except some plants, trees, and buildings that were able to withstand its impact. Life as we know it changes forever, and no matter how desperately we want it back, there is no going back.
