The things he or she did before you got married that weren't so bad are now the things that drive you nuts, because it's quite apparent they won't be changing anytime soon. You start to resent those things that bother you, and they start to notice you pulling away. They start resenting your stand-offishness, and wondering if you don't find them attractive anymore. You try to convince them otherwise, but they've already decided based on your inability to change that you don't really love them. You start resenting their assumptions and start pulling away more. Pretty soon, you're two toxic people who hate 90% of the things the other person does and says. You start saying things like "IMAGINE THAT!" and "You would do that, wouldn't you." Maybe even "That's so typical of you."

There are potential variations, including abuse, cheating, constantly traveling, miscommunicated desires, or even things you didn't know about your spouse before you married them. The last one is the most common, I think. People really don't ask "THOSE QUESTIONS" and get honest answers.
