Well in my case I married young. I was 21. I married her because she was pregnant with my child. I was taught that is the correct thing to do. Life was great until we realized had to actually grow up and take care of this child we created. We should have never gotten married simple as pie. Now there are 2 children involved and I hope its not going to be a bad divorce but I am tired of being unhappy and her not having any respect for anyone or anything. I would rather be single and a good dad to my kids than in a marriage with someone I am no longer in love with. In the end its half my fault half hers we should not have gotten married.
I feel you totally. Unfortunately, all divorces are bad. Just make sure, if you do go for a divorce, you get a chance to really parent your children, or else it's not worth it.
Money issues are a leading issue in divorce.
Both parents need to work outside the home....wages are stagnant...people are frustrated and a lot of people take their frustrations out on those closest to them.
I wonder if we'd see less divorce if our economy was in better shape and we had a bigger social safety net.
Also, a lot of my people my age (I'm 19) don't see themselves as getting married. They see themselves ohabitating in the future.
I don't think divorce is so horrible. I don't think marriage is something we should be obsessing over in comparison to more pressing issues.
Try being a father who worries that his children will be taken away. Try being a father for whom that has actually happened. Try being a man involved in family court period.
I think the divorce rate is so high because there is a general misunderstanding of marriage, team work, cooperation and understanding one's place in the relationship.
most couples go into a marriage not knowing what being married really involves. It is a contract of commitment towards each others lives and livelyhood......no matter what life throws at you. You have to be good to each other and look out for each other or it wont last.

Has this happened to you? Just curious.........I also find it funny there are many women who try to deny what men have experienced in real life and actually seen with their own eyes.
