But with some work you can save your relationship too!

For outsiders looking in, a divorce can seem like it came out of nowhere. But those in the relationship know that there are telltale signs — even if they aren't ready to admit it.

Feelings of obligation and disrespect can cause resentment in relationships.

If these scenarios sound a little too familiar, try these tips from sex therapist Dr. Chris Donaghue to spark some love in your relationship.
