There never used to be a '' Well theres always divorce if we fall out'' attitude tho marriage.Do you think it's because divorce has become more acceptable and easy? Or are people just less tolerant with their parteners thesedays? Or anything else =]

divorce..easy it can be hell but its to easy to get married now days that's why it doesn't work if it took just as much time an money to get married as it does to get a divorce alot of marriages wouldn't happen i think..divorce should be easy an getting married should be hard

I think its because too many people get married because they are 'in love'. They think the soppy feelings and lovey dovey ness will carry on for ever. So the first time they hit a problem, they dont know how to deal with it. So instead of doing what people who love each other should ie sitting down and working out a solution, they split up. I really think people should take a test before they can marry. And that includes me the first time around!

Divorce is more acceptable and easier than dealing with issues. It sucks because that "in love" feeling lasts about two years before you have to start working at it. People don't want to work at it any more. They want to find someone they feel that special spark with again. It takes time and effort and people use divorce as an easy way out. Trust me, I know!

Ok heres my problem with divorce. People instead of working through their problems with either their selves or their marraige always end up with oh I am just not happy...if your unhappy it might be you not your partner. I think that divorce is way to acceptable these days but what we really need to be saying is Marraige is too easy and acceptable. Me for example. I was sixteen ...three kids later divorce. we were tooo young and instead of waiting and living life we rushed and had kid after kid(which I do not regret having they are my pride and joy A honor roll students, beautiful and smart) then there is hubby 2 Known him since I was 14 got with him and had a daughter and after 10 years of marriage and being with him 12 years he left.Says he was unhappy. See I had the two examples of marrying young and marrying someone I knew for a while and then marrying him and then staying with him and he was the one who left. There is no reason or rhyme you can't predict what one will do but through my experience getting married to young is stupid and ridiculous and people after getting married and walking out on their spouses, without working things out and getting to the problems which usually them not the marraige, are stupid

I think when you go into a marriage with the attitude that divorce is an option, you are going to be more likely to take that option. In today's world, its about instant gratification and divorce is part of that. I made a committment to my wife and plan to keep it. Divorce isn't an option and we'll work through whatever troubles we have.

No they are to darn lazy to work things out. Marriage is give & take, you can't have everything your way, you have to compromise. And they feel it is easier just to get out then work it out.. Or they got married for all the wrong reasons & now find they aren't getting what they want so they get a divorce.

well this is different point of view but your question has to do with it.
i myself just got married and i'm very happy actually. but what really is annoying is that when married relatives or colleagues congratulate me, they always add 'but oh, we dont know yet whether it will last' and these longer-married-people will start talking bout negativity bout being married etc
and it sucks for people who are happy in their marriage (like me!)..so i say, these poeple who have this 'oh we can just have a divorce' attitude can just buzz off. just ignore these funny comments, and get on with ur happy married life!! yay!

Well, women have more rights for a start. Thanks to the likes of Germaine, we are more capable of standing up for ourselves.
I also think that society is more mature. People can see there is little point flogging a dead horse and can maturely assess that they are giving themselves and their soon-to-be-ex partner a better chance at 'getting it right next time' if they cut their losses before spending years wasting their lives.

I think the issue is that we are taught to believe that we DESERVE happiness instead of happiness being something to strive towards.
When we are unhappy, we do a blame game and say "Well, it's not working out...nice to have met you...see ya!"
People need to stick in there and work it out and not be so reliant on instant gratification and their selfish needs.

I think that no one seems to want to work hard at relationships anymore. I think that people arent less tolerant but people know moreof what they want nowadays and are more apt to go for it. People have a more flippant attitude these days i think.
