25+ signs that couples are going to break up: 'Couples who post about how much they love each other on social media [always] break up'

It's never easy to spot red flags when you're actually looking for them. Often, we see them in hindsight or when it's far too late. What gets in the way of catching these obvious signs? Tunnel vision, social pressures to be in a serious relationship, or perhaps the other person is legitimately a convincing pathological liar. Here's the thing to remember if you think this applies to you or a close friend: ignorance is actually not bliss. The illusion of happiness and stability is still just an illusion.

We have all had a friend who jumps through hoops to convince themselves that they are happy, when deep down, they're often aware that you're aware of the glaring red flags. Not only does this put a strain on the already strained relationship, but it also puts a strain on your friendship. These Redditors shared the most obvious signs they have come across that a couple is bound to break up, whether that's in a month or in five years. Keep scrolling below for the full list and for the funniest reactions. When you're done, check out these top "I told you so" moments.
