Reasons to stay married?

Answer 1

If your not happy none!!!
Don't tell me about religious beliefs either, they are still no reason to stay married.

Answer 2

Same reasons apply for staying married as for getting married to begin with.

Answer 3

The only way I think a couple should stay married is if they love each other and want to make it work. Marriage isn't easy and if you stay together just for the kids then that isn't a good idea especially if you fight a lot, that would only destroy the kids. It's better for children to have divorced parents then have ones who are together and fight all the time. I think that to many people go in to a marriage thinking "Well if this doesn't work then we can always get a divorce." That is a really stupid thing to go into a marriage thinking. I for one came into my marriage thinking that we are going to work and fight to keep our marriage. You can't expect to not fight once in awhile because that's normal in a marriage but all the time now that's not normal. You see my parents have been married for almost 35 years now and they've been through a lot but they've stuck through it and throught three children they are still together. It is hard on children if their parents are divorce but sometimes that's the best thing. My husband's parents divorced when he was 2 since his father left his mother for another but that's getting off the subject. Anyways I just wanted to share my belifs on marriage. Marriage isn't something you should take lightly becuase it's not. Marriage isn't about sex or children or money it's about two people who love each other and are commited to each other. The first reason people divorce is because of the way they go into marriage and that they give up so easily. I know that my husband is my soulmate and we are meant for each other is because I let God be my match maker because I knew that he won't give me someone I wasn't capablity to be with. The thing that people do wrong in this area is looking for what they want rather then what they need and that's one reason why we have a big divorce rating here today. That and people giving up to fast. The way I see it is if your not sure about your marriage you need to look deep into your soul and see why you want to break up your marriage and make sure you really want to do it. Make sure you really want to do that. I don't know why anyone would want to leave their spouse unless he or she has been cheating and they can't get along. My advice to ones who aren't married yet and plann on marrying their boy/girlfriend make sure you and that person are soulmates and your ready. So basically want I'm saying is it depends on your situation and what is wrong in your marriage but to me the only reasons I see why a married couple should break up is: 1. because he or she or both is cheating and 2 because they can't stop fighting at all. I mean at ALL. Not the occiasion once in awhile fight ethier. That is all.

Answer 7

Hello

I am sure that there are a lot of reason..

I think that only one that counts is if you are happy with that person

If you aren't happy then you need to do things to make you happy again ..

Life is to short to stay married to someone that you aren't happy with

GO Find someone that makes you happy.


Best of luck to you

Answer 8

1) You made a promise.
2) If you give up now, having a relationship later in life is going to end the same way.
3) Once you accept divorce as an option, you stop trying to save your marriage.

Answer 9

Even though it hasn't been easy (we've been together for an year and a half), I could not imagine myself with anyone else =) He is the only man that can make me smile, he's the only man who can get me all shy. I love him to death no matter how much of a knuckle head he could be.

Answer 10

Because contrary to popular belief, marriages are NOT (or SHOULD NOT BE) disposable!! Why should you stay married? Because you made a promise to!!!!!
