Is your relationship doomed?

Do you criticize your partner? That could be a big problem. 

Dr. John Gottman, author of “The Relationship Cure,” says there are four primary predictors that indicate your relationship is doomed:

* Criticism: Repeatedly criticizing your partner's core or personality usually signals the end is near.

* Defensiveness: If one person is having to constantly defend themselves, something is very wrong. 

* Stonewalling: Shutting down the lines of communication will suffocate the relationship - and it will die.

* Contempt: This is the kiss of death and the single greatest predictor of divorce. Sarcasm, name-calling, mimicking and eye-rolling makes the other person feel worthless.
