If a woman is on the brink of dumping her man, usually the sex stops. But don’t worry just yet, those symptoms don’t necessarily mean she’s about to break up with you, says sexologist Jill McDevitt, Ph.D.

Preventative Measures: “Be kind and compassionate,” says Dr. McDevitt. “Treat your partner with respect, as an equal, and generally be someone other humans want to be around.” If you’re doing all that and she still wants to leave, just remember, “some people aren’t compatible,” says Dr. McDevitt.

How To Turn It Around: “Ask her,” says Dr. McDevitt. “Instead of guessing, assuming, and fearing, talk about it! And be the type of trustworthy partner that she can feel good about talking to about things as serious as ‘I’m thinking of breaking up with you…’ before it gets to that point.”
