I am sick of this divorce, divorce, divorce!!! What's wrong with people?????

Answer 1

It is easier to some people to take the easy way out rather than hang in there when times get tough.

Answer 2

Because people get married to make THEMSELVES happy - not to make the other person happy. People divorce because they are self-absorbed and want all of their needs met without even thinking twice about their spouse. That's not commitment! Marriage is for a LIFETIME. There are only 2 deal breakers - infidelity and abuse. But people use every excuse in the book to bail on their commitment. Imagine if every husband and wife's goal was to seek the other person's needs above their own - what a change we would see in the divorce rate?

Answer 3

Married for the wrong reasons, that's why. People choose to avoid that to confront the actual situations. I mean, how many of us can actually be responsible for our own decision? Not many. So those who can't, choose another way out. Divorce is of course not the solution in many conditions but undoubtedly, it is for certian cases. If the divorce is meant for good, it will bring good in long run. If it is not right, then it will be another problem. Whether it's good or not, those will know sooner or later. Don't be too general on this issue ;) It depends on the situation you're facing.

Answer 4

Divorce happens because alot of married couples these days are too lazy to try to work on their marriages and opt for the easy way out. I think if people who are thinking of divorce could just think back to why they married their spouse in the first place maybe there'd be fewer divorces...

Answer 5

The problem with people is that when problems come up, instead of facing them head on and trying to resolve them, they would rather run from them instead. Also people rush into marriage without really getting to know each other first. They have sex before marriage and feel that because they had sex that they connect.

And people who advise divorce over issues that divorce shouldn't be considered like one partner has a low sex drive, what does divorce have to do with that. People put WAY too much importance on sex, and not enough on working on the relationship. Yes I feel sex is important in a happy marriage, but not at the top of the list of what's most important in marriage.

I think if people would stop thinking of themselves and what they want, and started thinking about their spouse, and their spouse's feelings and needs, we wouldn't see the problems with divorce that we do. If you go into a marriage with a selfish attitude, your marriage is doomed to fail. But if you go into your marriage with a selfless attitude and putting your spouse first, and keeping it that way throughout the marriage, I think marriages would last alot longer and we wouldn't have a divorce rate that's as high as it is today.

Hope that this helps.

Answer 6

I think why divorce is so popular now, (from a woman's point of view), years ago women tolerated everything,,cheating, alcohol problems, abuse etc. Now days you dont have to stay with a man for financial security and it is not looked upon as such a negative thing.
On the other hand, people dont try as hard to make it work, and divorces are fairly easy to get.

Answer 7

Yes, divorces are getting easier! Some people do try to work it out but it just doesn't work and some people don't even try to work on it and that's it! When is it ok to divorce someone? Is death the only way out?

Answer 8

I asked questions about divorce, but its not something I want. I know what it will do to my kids. I don't want them to live life that way. I don't want to give up as some people say, but what are you to do when the other person won't compromise, won't change and doesn't want to see things from any point of view but their own? When I married my husband he wasn't like this. He was fun, he compromised, we talked. Now we don't talk, we do things his way, and I have become a "doormat", so to speak because I stay home and he works, because daycare shouldn't be raising our kids. This was a mutual decision but it has opened a door for him to think because he has a paycheck he makes the rules. People get divorced for their own reasons, it doesn't make them bad people.

Answer 9

I totally agree with you. People are too lazy to work on their marriages. Everything in society is disposable, including marriages and kids. It's disgusting. Most people say their wedding vows just because they have to, but you really have to think about what you are saying and what you are willing to do for your spouse. I take my vows seriously and have a great marriage. Our marriage wasn't always great, but once one person sits back and thinks how idiotic and selfish they are acting and don't want to lose their spouse, that's when reality sets in. People are just lazy and think they can go off and sleep with whoever. It's so disrespectful. What would God think about our behaviors? I agree with you 150%! Finally, an intelligent question!

Answer 10

Too many people are eager to throw away their marriages at the first sign of a problem. I have noticed that most people that reply to marriage/divorce questions, their first response is "dump him/her". Nobody is willing to put any effort into it.

Answer 11

Tell me about it. Every time I meet a cute guy he's been divorced twice and he's got like three kids. Why can't people be a little more selective????!!!
