i didn't divorce him because i fell out of love, i was still very much in love with him when i left. don't assume that people don't have good reasons for throwing aside the vows of marriage. and we were together for several years before getting married. it wasn't that we didn't know each other well enough first. i died a little the day i left, but i'd have lost much more if i had stayed.
it was that whole "him - going - to - prison - for - breaking - into - a - pharmacy - to - get - drugs - then - burning - it - down - while - people - were - still - inside" kind of thing that took a toll on our relationship. leaving was the only way i had of saving myself from a life of hardships and heartache.

My ex-husband was very narrcistic and felt he was smarter, yet was very lazy. I put up with it for about two years until my father was murdered. At the funeral, my ex whined about where I asked him to sit (directly behind me so my family could all squeeze in the same row) he even pulled me aside to say I was not "paying enough attention to him". The straw that broke my back was when he demanded I let HIM run my dad's estate, even though I was appointed the administratrix. My brother and uncle had a stake in it, but my ex wanted to cut them off.When I left him, as retahliation, he said he would sue me for my half of my father's estate, since we were married at the time it was given. But he never did and I am now free.

Because everyone was more important than I was. I wasn't even on the list. This is the biggest complaint my MIL had about my FIL. She warned me, I should have listened to her. Oh and there was the drugs and booze for over 30 years, and the 6 DWI's, and the bailing out of jail, and the jobs lost to booze, and the driving the kids around while drunk, and the passing out on the floor while drunk, and the drunken rages, and the lying, and the not paying the bills, and spending all our money on booze and drugs, and.........do I need to go on? He's in recovery, lives out of state and we are both much happier. I still wish I had listened to his mother, she had him pegged.

Why would u want to know? There are hundreds of reasons that can lead to divorces..
People change, earth change, weather change, everything else changed, what make you think that the person you loved 10yrs ago stays the same , and you also stayed the same?
Nothing is guaranteed in life unless these people put in effort at least to maintain it or make it works, right?

Husband #1: He was 22 years my senior and there were just not enough common points. I divorced him due to my own selfish reasons.
Husband #2: He was mentally abusive at times and unfaithful. Very, very controlling and I was a trophy wife.
Husband #3: Extremely verbally and mentally abusive. Again, a trophy. Physically abusive occasionally. It was the worst travesty.

I divorced my first husband because he was calling his daughter horrible names such as F parasite or the other one was F wit. I assume you all know what F stands for?. Do you think I did the right thing?.

The fact that I caught him in bed with someone else was a big factor in the divorce.

Lack of everything I was taught that a husband should be/do.
Wouldn't work, didn't talk about anything. never really loved me or showed he loved me.
LAZY, LAZY, LAZY!!
Wouldn't even help with his infant son, when i had surgery and was not allowed to lift a gallon of milk, he'd rather sleep all day, lifting the coffee cup, and lighting the cigarettes were more important...thank GOD my Daddy was there to help me.

He was an alcoholic, ran up incredible credit card debt and the sex was infrequent and terrible. I'd rather be alone than deal with that ever again.

After I had our son my ex husband became a controlling, obsessive jerk. And he was emotionally abusing me. He is older than me and thought he could tell me what to do and when. He can't stand it now that he has no control over me.
