*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MASSAGE ***

You know it's over when...

...you go to a party and talk to other people THE WHOLE TIME.

...your best friend asks you "how's so-and-so" and you say he/she's OK
and then you change the subject.

...you don't bring up a certain subject because you're afraid of what
his/her reaction will be (and this happens fairly often).

...you both spend time with each other's friends, but the one group is
very different than the other and none of them know or would like
each other (this is especially true if you don't particularly care
for most of his/her friends yourself).

...you don't talk about various interests, just about the relationship
(assuming you DID talk about your interests at one time).

...little things you used to notice, a touch, a wink of the eye, giving
a back rub, cute remarks or a sly smile, suddenly don't happen anymore.

...you notice less of a tendancy to commit to long-range plans (like
camp-outs, trips, etc.).

...you're doing something together you used to like and one of you
feels that it's just not that much fun anymore.

...you argue about REALLY insignificant things.

...he/she talks about his/her XSOs a lot more than usual (especially if
  comparing you to them, again, more than usual).

and of course, the obvious:

You know it's over when he/she tells you it's over.

-----

for the lighter side (to make myself feel better)...

You know it's over when...

...he/she takes you to Burger King for your birthday.

...you call him/her and say "Hi, it's me" and he/she says "Me who?"

...he/she moves and leaves no forwarding address.

...Your Christmas card from him/her is addressed to "Occupant."

...she introduces you to her new roommate, Ted.

...she says she can't go out tonight because she's washing her hair
and she doesn't even ask you over to help.

...he/she forgets the Wesson Oil and it was even on the grocery list.
