Do you believe in divorce ?

Question

If you do, please explain what the point of getting married is.

Answer 1

absolutely do not believe in it. I am married, and take my vows very seriously. People do get married for dumb reasons though. Divorce, however, is not for me. There is something that brought you together in the first place, and that can be the very thing that saves you. As far as I'm concerned, people who get divorced cause they don't want to 'work at it' are just lazy.. just because you are married does not mean you get to be lazy in your relationship.

Answer 2

I am a divorcee so I guess I believe in it. Now here is the situation. No one gets married just to be divorced. I believed that we all honestly get married to stay for ever but because of changes which comes along. For example, I may decide that I do not like you any more and so I want to get rid of you.
Another question you must answer is what is the reason for the divorce? This will become a vital issue in settling the question of getting divorce.
Anyhow, remember that we do many things that we do not believe in. Good luck.

Answer 3

Sometimes people get married for the wrong reasons, or get married before they are mature enough to know what they truely want.. and some people go around with a facade and get married to someone who does not truely know their inner being and changes a few months/years into marriage.. These situations shouldn't doom someone to be forced to live out the rest of their life in agony.. thus divorce was created. Marriage is great for those that know exactly what they want, and what they are doing, but we're not all blessed with that foresight...and for some it takes many years to come to this conclusion. Mistakes are made...divorce is one of those things that can correct mistakes.. it doesn't make marriage worthless..

Answer 4

I think that marriage is a leap of faith; something that you do when you feel like being with someone for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, there are times when people change, and this changing can be completely beyond someone's control or even thier foresight (i.e.--being cheated on, being abused, or simply waking up one morning and not being in love)...this is where divorce comes in. Divorce is what you do when you have exhausted all other options. Look at it like this...you buy a car that you REALLY love, you take care of this car, you wash it and change it's oil regularly...then one day this car breaks down and despite your best efforts, the best thing to do is cut your losses and let it go...

Answer 5

Yes i do! If they are abusing, cheating on you thin yes or if you don't like the person any more!! And the point in getting married is that you want to spend the rest of you life with that person and you want to have a family!! And if you do get divorce there is probably a reason for that!! Means that you are not meant for tthat person!

Answer 6

I don believe in divorce, even at one stage I wanted it so much but I decide against it. At that point of time I really thought divorce is the only way but I realised now that its not. When problems arises its always - how you handle it. Take things the positive way! and now it turns out fine...
I don really care what marriage is all about but what I know is I love him and wanted to be with him for the rest of my life, problems comes and goes and will never end....we just stride over it!!!
My dream is, one day I will walk with him at the beach looking back there are grandchildren and great grandchildren tagging along...!!! cool huh..!

Answer 7

I didn't believe in divorce when I got married. I figured a couple who loved and respected each other could work out anything at all. Later, after the husband knocked out the front teeth of our 5 year old I quickly changed my mind. I might have signed up for that crap when I said "Ido", but my children shouldn't have to pay for my mistaken judgement.

Answer 8

People have many different reasons for getting married, just as many reasons for divorcing, as well.
Example::::: #1--I was young and stupid, so was he. We didn't live together prior to marrying and had we done so, I would have never married him.
#2--he was abusive, controlling, jealous. We were down in Vegas and he wanted to get married. I feared for my safety so I did what he wanted.
#3--I was pregnant. At the time, it was the right thing to do.
#4--security. He was financially stable and helped me grow and mature alot. Lasted over 10yrs.
#5--I'm finally getting married for LOVE.

Answer 9

Yes, divorce is the result of a failed marriage..
It is not a reason not to get married...
People get killed in Busses, Cars & Planes all the time and
these same people are all aware that people are killed in accidents
yet they continue to travel on Busses, Cars & Planes...
Marriage offers children legitimacy and some safety net to
both children and dependant spouse..
It is a valuable and necessary componet to civilized society..

Would you want to spend the rest of your life with someone you can no longer stand to touch,live with,be in the same room with,spend your hard earned money on?Sure when you first got married you thought it would be forever,but now if you don't get out soon your going to end up in jail for killing her or hitting on her.Now do you really want to go through life like that?Sure you don't.That's why there is divorce.Or if you found out she was sleeping with someone else and gave you a STD.Would you still be able to trust her and forgive her?That's why i fully believe in divorce.How bout if she wanted to leave you for another woman?Get it now?
