a marriage is a bond between husband and wife and ultimately God. It is a life long commitment that you make between all 3. Truely both people are making the commitment to God by saying that no matter what you will stay truthful to each other and to God. Of course if you have kids, its a terrible thing, because then who gets the kids most of the time, where will they go to school, who pays what? there is so much taht goes into it, its almost easier to stay married. People now a days are just to lazy to try and make it work. Plus many don't go thru what is needed before you get married to make it work while they are married.

Where to start.....
1. If you have children, the emotional damage to the kids caused by divorce, the kids blame themselves thinking that it's their fault that mom and dad are divorcing. It's very truamatic for the kids. And causes a lot of instability in the kids.
2. Sometimes after a divorce, there's regret and the couple who divorced sometimes are thinking, we could have made it work if we would have tried this.
3. Instead of getting a divorce, GO TO MARRIAGE COUNSELING!!! Counseling DOES work, as long as BOTH partners are willing to give it a chance and work at it.

I will answer from a biblical point of view. God said that He hates divorce.
Malachi 2: 13-16
13 Another thing you do: You flood the LORD's altar with tears. You weep and wail because he no longer pays attention to your offerings or accepts them with pleasure from your hands. 14 You ask, "Why?" It is because the LORD is acting as the witness between you and the wife of your youth, because you have broken faith with her, though she is your partner, the wife of your marriage covenant.
15 Has not the LORD made them one? In flesh and spirit they are his. And why one? Because he was seeking godly offspring. [e] So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your youth.
16 "I hate divorce," says the LORD God of Israel, "and I hate a man's covering himself [f] with violence as well as with his garment," says the LORD Almighty.
So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith.
See this link below if you want more info on what the Bible says about divorcing covenant spouse and remarriage...You will be surprised to hear that remarrying is adultery in God's eyes, even though the world doesn't see it that way. I would scroll down to the part where it says God makes the man and woman one.

Its never been a bad thing with me. When two people cease to progress together in life, its time for a change. A marriage should continue to let each other grow as individuals, so that each can continue to work together to make a marriage last. When it doesn't, the marriage is doomed.

Because you make a vow to honor love cherish and all that crap when you got married. If you love them so much then yall can stay together. But if u get a divorce than its kind of lik u didnt really love them enough because you left them.

Marriage is a commitment made between two people, you gave your word before god and people to love, honor, and obey through,sickness and in health, for richer or poorer. When you get a divorce from that it is like you lied to your faith. Also, Marriage is ment to work things out, testing your loyality and streanth and most inportant it tests your love

The fact that you even need to ask this question is sad.
