How Likely Is Your Relationship to End?

Relationship dissolution rarely comes as a complete surprise — it is typically preceded by months or years of declining satisfaction, eroding emotional connection, and deteriorating conflict quality. But these signals are often gradual enough that couples don't notice them until they have compounded significantly. This calculator provides a structured way to assess the current state of five key stability factors that research consistently links to relationship dissolution or survival. The five factors assessed — Overall Satisfaction (25%), Conflict Resolution Quality (22%), Emotional Connection (20%), Shared Future Vision (18%), and Mutual Investment (15%) — reflect decades of relationship research, particularly from the Gottman Institute, which has studied what distinguishes couples who stay together from those who separate. Of all factors, satisfaction and contempt (captured in conflict quality) are the two strongest predictors of relationship outcomes. The calculator produces an estimated dissolution risk percentage (not a prediction, but a diagnostic indicator), a pie chart showing which factors contribute most to risk, specific red flags when individual factors fall below critical thresholds, and a prioritized action plan for the dimensions driving the most risk. Use this tool for honest self-reflection — answer based on the relationship as it currently is, not as it was at its best.
