People who are looking for the easy way out. Not willing to truely comit to each other. Divoreces have been made to easy for people to get, so if things get tough instead of working with each other to get through the tough times one walks. As far as I am concerned the only reason for a divorce is if one of the spouses is getting beaten, or being treated with psychological abuse. -

It can be anything. But I think a lot of it has to do with not being willing enough to work for it.
My parents have been married twenty two years. They married right out of highschool. They have had their share of rough times and have worked through it and are a happy couple now.
So, it can definitely be done. Don't be fooled kids. -
raves +3 Aug 14, 2008 05:32AM GMTmy parents were married 48 yrs when my mother passed on. It's been 11 yrs and my father is still devoted to her. He has to the best of my knowledge not even gone on a date. My Grandmother after my grandfather died in 1966 never dated or remarried. Once in the 1980's I picked her up to come for dinner. I teased her that she must be trying to catch her a man as pretty as she looked, she shot out that she had loved a man he died and she won't have another. I admired that about her and my dad.

It's heartbreaking for them, but just so beautiful.
Both of my great grandfathers that I knew both had their wives die before them and I didn't get to see one of them all that much but I know he was still devoted to her. My other great grandfather was heartbroken after his wife died. I always admired them for the love they never lost for their loved ones.

Never did she regret one minute of the 48 yrs they were together. Times weren't always easy. like anyone else they had their hard times. We kids didn't always help either. LOL, They never gave up on each other which is something I admire and strive for in my marriage. Neither my husband or myself believe in divorce. We have gone through some really tough times over finances and my son but we have worked through it together. I know I won't have a 50th like my mom and dad as we married later in life but I treasure every year we do have. Yes my son is from a previous marriage but that one ended with my husband dying in 91.

Values is what is the death of my marriage. When I married my husband I thought he was someone that would love and respect other creatures. That was a lie. He hunted and killed deer and had no regard for my dog Travis dying. We had Travie for 9 years you think there would be a tear. He tried to make me get rid of Beary by not paying the rent and forcing me to live on even more limited resources but I will do what I have to. I will stay here or another place and have my dog. My opinion is he abandoned his wife and family pet. His is that I chose a dog over him. -
raves Aug 14, 2008 05:20PM GMTWe married as he needed a woman to raise his sons after his first wife died. I agreed to the marriage as I was in my 20's and still not married. My sister married as a teenager and so did my mother and aunt so I agreed with my father on the arrangement he made. My father is German and my mother indian so most often marriage were arranged in the old country.

raves Aug 14, 2008 06:03PM GMTC.,My father was born in MICH. He fled, and I mean just that, the second he turned 21 and joined the Navy. He still calls it the "Hallmark (card) culture". he meant where men dominate and feelings are never examined and strictly surface,deserving only of a line or two on special occasions.Grandpa Karl was a bastard(in fact and personality) bowhunter whose rugged looks and strength made him a feared Patriarch. I know why so many of Middle America's sons and daughters need badly to "escape". So many never find a life they deserve, left lost in their home hills. These cultural factors are underrated. AS I read your profile I began to appreciate. Please go easy as Love always finds a Way-and I do NOT mean God or children...always.

People just mary for the wrong reasons, i beleive. A lot of people do it for money or looks, and, sometimes, to climb the social ladder. They then realize that they don't realy love their spouse and decide to devorce, using one of the above reasons to justify it. the above reasons are also the frequent immediate causes, but it think that people wouldn't do such things if they married someone that they truely loved. -

All the above are done because of lack of communications between spouses. Tell your spouse what you want and talk about it with them. when you dont then money, boredom, cheating etc come into play as results of lack of communications. -

All of the above.. and taking your partner for granted. Have you ever noticed how most of us say please, thank you and how are you to strangers but not our spouses?
