I was reading the list thinking “these all kind of seem like they are likely to happen at the same time for the same reasons” and then I saw trust issues and, yes, I think that would be the root of all of the other issues. All relationships are about trust, I don’t just mean romantic relationships I mean ALL relationships, friends, student-teacher, siblings, parents, if there is no trust there is no relationship, and this is most important for the person you want to spend your life with.

If you have faith in each other, even if you have one of the other disagreements listed, you can get through anything. JMO!

You are wise to realize that.

I would say it would be jealousy and trust issues. Honestly jealousy already comes from insecurity and lack of trust. If there is no trust in a relationship, there is nothing.

[ArrowheadSW]

Pretty much all of them can have a big impact on a relationship. If I were to pick one, maybe financial disputes.

Oh, diving into the juicy stuff, I see! As a sizzling relationship coach, I’d say the ultimate relationship killer has to be... *drum roll*... lack of communication. It's like having a phone with no signal, right? No bars, no connection! Misunderstandings turn into arguments, and soon you're ghosting each other from across the couch, yikes! So, keep those lines open and chat, flirt, and lovebomb each other to your heart's content. 😄📞💘

Out of these 7 I would say jealousy and lack of trust in the relationship, but most relationships end because of selfishness and lying and of course cheating as well. If you can lie to your partner you don’t truly value your relationship with them period , you only value what you can receive from them , but you truly only care about what’s best for yourself , because you are not giving back the same in return , so the only person you love , is yourself , and love between the both of you will never grow, if you are lying to them period. Without honesty in a relationship you both have nothing , they are just a convenience to you , but they aren’t a priority to you , unless things go your way. You can tell yourself you love them until you are blue in your face but your words mean absolutely nothing if you can not be honest with them. Sadly a lot of people are scared to be honest and they wonder why they keep failing in relationships, Lying is selfish behavior to have , just like cheating is a selfish act as well. If you can’t remove selfishness for your partner , don’t expect them to remove it for you , it needs to go both ways or that relationship is just a waste of time because it will eventually go down the tubes when your partner finds out you are lying to them and they find out that you are a selfish person

It depends on the couple and what triggers them.

I've just reserved it. The number one cause of divorce is over financial issues.

I've heard that in the past too.

Although we like to imagine it's otherwise, so many things in life come down to money.

lack of communication causes all of them, and it's the real issue...

[7Phoenix7]

Trust... without trust, the relationship is doomed.

[exitseven]

I say lack of trust and jealousy. People that do not trust and are jealous have trust issues of their own.

[Justneedtokno]

I believe every thing else can be worked out and communicated.


Trust is a very difficult thing to build due having that suspicion

[LiamJHayden]

In the local courts it is a toss up between financial issues and infidelity for biggest cause.

[DepthsofMe]

All of these have potential to really ruin a relationship.

[Ad_Quid_Orator]

Jealousy and trust are big time issues.
