There could never be a perfect marriage. There are rough times in each relationship. It is normal for couples to argue and disagree with each other. Actually, it is somehow healthy for couples to argue. However, there are times wherein they would not agree on everything, and everything would just fall apart. This could lead to a hopeless situation wherein they would have to break up. Sadly, it is not always a happily ever after.
There are numerous reason why people break up and leads to divorce. Each couple has their story. There are hundreds of different reasons from couples who got separated. In some cases, there is not just one reason but a couple of overlapping reasons why they separated.
According to http://www.buzzle.com/articles/common-causes-and-reasons-for-divorce.html, the most common causes of divorce are communication problems, financial issues, physical abuse, substance abuse, drug, alcohol and gambling problems, marital infidelity, sexual problems, abandonment, emotional abuse, inability to manage or resolve conflict, differences in personal and career goals, different expectations, interference from parents or in-laws, lack of maturity, intellectual incompatibility, falling out of love, religious conflict, cultural and lifestyle differences, mental instability, criminal behavior, incompatibility and the list goes on.
Those were just some of the most common causes of divorce. As I have mentioned in my previous entry, having a divorce is a very serious decision that one would make. Divorce would definitely change one’s life 360 degrees. It would mean, goodbye happy family and back to single life.
Personally, I am against divorce. Divorce means that a person would separate or leave the person he or she loved years ago. Divorce means that one would disunite with the man or the woman that he or she married. First, I would define what marriage is. Marriage, to me, is being united with the one you love til death. It is a commitment, not only to the law but also to God. Committing to yourself with another person. “For better for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, ‘til death do us part.” It also means becoming one. I do not get the point nor understand why two people should leave. For me, If they really love each other, why wont they fight for it til the end? Nobody’s perfect! Everyone has their flaws. And I believe that if you love someone, you will love him or her unconditionally. However, there are cases wherein you would hear yourself saying, “I can’t take it anymore!” Enough is enough! Sometimes, you have tried your best to save the relationship, however your partner does not want to or is not helping. There are also cases wherein you do not really love the person you married. It was just because your parents told you so.
Again, I am against divorce. As much as possible, I do not like people having divorce. However, there are cases wherein I would agree on it. Especially when someone is already abused. It would be stupid to stay in the relationship and get hurt.
