Controlling Tendencies. If your partner is trying to control your thoughts and actions, likes and dislikes, and your circle of friends, among other things, it could be unforgivable, as it shows a lack of respect and a scary, over-bearing nature.
Manipulation of any form, including gaslighting, is on the list of unforgivable things in a relationship. In this case of gaslighting, partners deny they're doing anything wrong and distort things so much that you question your reality. If you want specific examples, you must contact a therapist.
And yet, it is deeds which are said to be unforgivable."43 For example, rape, torture, and murder are often cited as unforgivable acts, because they are so repulsive and heinous.
Unacceptable behavior examples can include physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, manipulation, control, lying, cheating, disrespecting boundaries, ignoring or invalidating feelings, belittling or demeaning, and refusing to take responsibility for one's actions.
If you really feel, even after someone has expressed their apology and offered to amend their future behavior, that you're not in a place to forgive them. It is OK to tell them that. If forgiving someone guarantees that they're back in your life, and if that puts those around you (like your children or family) at risk.
When there are more pros than cons, you can stay in this marriage because there is something worth fighting for. But when there are more cons than pros, you no longer love your partner and don't feel inclined toward working together to resolve your differences, leaving may be the better option.
Contempt is the worst of the four horsemen. It is the most destructive negative behavior in relationships. In Dr. John Gottman's four decades of research, he has found it to be the number one predictor of divorce.

In marriage, there are also “deadly sins.” I call those deadly sins: abuse, addiction and adultery — or “The Three As.”
Graham: Only one sin that can't be forgiven is on God's list — and that is the sin of rejecting Him and refusing His offer of forgiveness and new life in Jesus Christ. This alone is the unforgivable sin, because it means we are saying that the Holy Spirit's witness about Jesus is a lie (see Luke 12:10).
Therefore I tell you, people will be forgiven for every sin and blasphemy, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."
What is a loveless marriage? A loveless marriage is a relationship where one or both partners do not feel in love. Instead of being romantic lovers, they often feel more like roommates or siblings. Being in a loveless marriage often breeds isolation, resentment, and hopelessness.

A bad wife is someone who doesn't make effort in the relationship or doesn't contribute to making the relationship good and healthy. She is someone who doesn't respect her husband and doesn't prioritize him. She is often critical but hardly gives time for effective communication.
Usually, second or third marriages in the United States have a higher divorce rate: 60% of second marriages and about 73% of third marriages end in divorce.
A study led by the American Sociological Association determined that nearly 70% of divorces are initiated by women. And the percentage of college-educated American women who initiated divorce is even higher.
What Is Refusing to Forgive? When we refuse to forgive, we hold on to our hurt, our anger, and our bitterness. We stew in our feelings of hostility and resentment.
Often the hardest person to forgive is yourself. You are so hurt, yet you realize that you are the one to blame. You are the one who did it to yourself. And so you want to make yourself hurt.
