Do people take there marriages and relationships for granted?

Question

So many people now are so quick to throw away there relationship/marriage away over minor things do people try to work it out anymore?

Answer 1

People absolutely take their marriages/relationships for granted. But, not everyone is quick to throw it all away. My husband and I have been together for 14 years and married for 8. We were both teenagers when we met. It's been a struggle many times over the years, but we're still together.

Answer 2

I agree... Also not only are they quick to get divorced, but they are too quick to get married too. I don't think those people place the importance on marriage that they should. I guess a lot of them figure that if something doesn't go the way they want that they will just get divorced, it's sad. My husband and I dated each other in high school, went our own ways and then each had a few bad relationships and ended up finding each other 8 years later. We lived together for almost 7 years before getting married. People used to make fun of me for being "the old maid" but I will tell you that 3 of my close friends have been married multiple times. One of them has been married 4 times , the other two have each been married twice! I held out because marriage to me means "for life" and in order to make a decision as important as that one, I had to really be sure. I am glad I waited though, and those friends of mine wish they had too.

Answer 3

You are absolutely right. Today, getting a divorce is equal to breaking-up in grade school.

It is only because they're getting married to someone they might think they love, at the wrong time, for all the wrong reasons.

Unfortunately, there are children involved and they suffer the most. Now because this is going on for so many years, they are raising those children to do the same thing. They become adults now and they have no idea what love and marriage is. They have no clue how wonderful life could be with someone they love and commit to spend the rest of their lives with, till death do them part.

They were raised to think, marriage comes with fighting, cheating and divorce.

This world has been ruined because of the way marriage has been so disrespected.

Answer 4

no they only view there own interests, but the minor problem is almost always the false reason. no one knows how to be honest anymore. a lot of times its easier to come up with fake reasons then to come out with the real reason. marriage is about two people only no kids no mom or dad or friends. Just two people sharing the the road of life, and everything that comes with, the good and the bad. So you have someone to lean on. Most problems can be worked out if both people want it to but if only one wants it, it is very hard to be happy

Answer 5

My husband and I do work everything out...we had a rough patch for a short while and decided instead of taking the easy way out and separating we would sit down and talk it over like ADULTS and we are still going strong 9 years and 2 sons! The older we get,, the more we realize we aren't only husband and wife but best friends and soul mates! I couldn't live without him and vice versa....

Answer 6

particular I help the two Polygamy and LGBT type relationships. in spite of each thing love is love n count what type of relationship it is. the considerable concern is happiness no count if its with a single guy or woman or dissimilar companions. Incest could desire to basically be allowed if the two people in contact are consenting adults and fully comprehend the effect. on the different hand incest with toddlers is basically basically incorrect. besides the fact that polygamy and gay marriages is all proper to the affection you share.

Answer 7

its not the same people take ther spouses for granted infedelity is a bigger problem now then ever.sex is to over rated and family and marriage is under rated check out the statistics

Answer 8

No. No one seems to have time for dedication and loyalty anymore. I don't see why most people bother to marry in the first place. Does committment even exist in this day and age?

Answer 9

well i am not one of those people! I have been married for 14 yrs and although we have had some really really crappy times we are still working on our marriage. My vows mean something to me.

Answer 10

divorce just seems so easy to so many people, but in real life divorce is hard on so many people not just the two involved. It affects a lot of people especially kids if you have any.
