Why is everyone getting divorced?

Dazy

Because a lot of people get married without thinking it threw. You have to really get to know the person first. Have a long engagement. Make sure you are compatibly. Some people get married just for the benefits, you save on auto insurance, taxes, you can get the other persons heath insurance. Which is messed up that you have to be married to get their health insurance. You get penalized for not being married. If you get divorced your auto insurance go up.

Its too easy!

Too many people are getting out when the going get's tough.

A marriage is hardwork, alot of people dont seem to realize that.

The reason people are getting divorced because they aren't marrying for love but it's lust! Love is kind, love is patient, love keeps no record of wrong, etc... Therefore, if people truly were marrying for love, they would be able to last longer, potentially until death do part....

My parents divorced when I was in middle school and my life got really ruined and I felt like wtf im living for but then I realized that divorcement is just like when friends lose each other cuz they didn't get along..the difference is that divorcement leaves kids sometimes behind..

People are too weak to maintain a relationship nowadays.

The divorce rate has been close to this for at least 20 years. People are just to stupid to take it slow and find what they're actually getting married to. I've heard and believe it takes at least 2 years to get to know every side of a person. But people move in to quickly and stay out of obligation, fear or (my fav.) money.

well they either get divorsed because they stop loving each other or they have economic problems or because they are young and stupid when they get married and in the future they realize it (they made a mistake)

Most are lazy and selfish...though some are rightfully getting divorced from abusers or cheaters.

quacker-roo

sometimes there's no other option !
it isn't fair to say people are lazy
People work hard at it but, just can't get it right ......
Its very, very complicated.
Your born into a certain family, it doesn't guarantee you will love all of them or get along w/ them forever, people fall off all the time! Just like w/ marriage there's no guarantee.....
No one deserves to be miserable.

In times of great stress, like recession and unemployment divorce seems to increase. People blame each other for not having any money or they didn't plan better or there loosing everything because they think its the spouse's fault.

I know it makes no sense and its in these times you would think people would get closer. Just know some do. Before you marry these are some of the things you talk about when getting to know someone,which tells you if they are the marrying kind for you.

Ooo May Day!

Everyone can speculate on why someone gets divorced, but the only real answer is because they want to.
I've heard all the excuses. Getting married too young, not knowing each other enough, drifting apart, etc.
Well I got married when I was 19 and I knew my husband for 12 days. I've been married for a decade now, which in today's world is like a century.
The reason why I never got a divorce and never will is because I'll never give up. I took my vows seriously, for better or for worse, and I intend on sticking by them. I will always work at making my marriage better and I'll never take the easy way out.
I think a lot of people are very selfish. It is all about what THEY want and they don't stop to think about what they can do to make their partner's life better.
Of course I understand divorce in cases of abuse. Then yes, you should definitely get out right away. But other than that scenario, you can't constantly run away from your problems.
If you think a new partner will solve them then you are sorely wrong. Second marriages have an even higher failure rate. Because with a new partner, comes a new set of problems.
I also think you have to be happy and secure with yourself in order for your relationship to work.
Divorces these days seem like nothing. Everyone thinks the kids will be fine and they will get over it. No, no they won't. No matter how amicable a divorce is, it hurts the children.
It definitely isn't something that should be taken lightly, that is for sure.

They don't understand that you have to constantly work at it and they jump bail when it gets tough, it is not some la-la land fairytale it really takes a commitment from two people

Flying Car

It is not new there was a dramatic increase in the 60's I believe.

I guess they are doing it wrong. I am divorced and I did it wrong. I want to actually do it the church way next time around. You dont get laid but you get to know each other and work on the more fundamental aspects of the relationship. But hey Im late thirties now not twenty something. I would tell twenty something to get all that laying out of their system and see for themself that its not all its cracked up to be and at the end of the day you still have no one there. If you want it to be forever then you have to postpone the pinazy.

bourdecr

don't think that :(
it's because nobody wants to try anymore or really don't because they know there is an easy way out these days

nick-knack

some people think that it's because of more people marrying without thought or time. others think that its because women are starting to be more independent and think for themselves more. I like the idea of the second one, but i don't know what to say.

make sure she doesn't take away everything you own haha

Marriage is like a hanging out with OJ Simpson eventually you'll get stabbed in the back

The reason why I think the divorce rate is so hi, is because we never really get to know our spouses and even ourselfs.

In modern society it seems like you have to be with some1. As soon as our relationships fall apart, we just into another one. Why do we do this? Partly b/c we dont want to be lonely, the other part is b/c society looks upon us less when we are single.

So rather than taking the time to find yourself after a failed relationship (why the relationship failed, how can you avoid it next time, how can you better yourself, and what you really want out of life and/or your next relationship), insted we jump into another relationship. We never find out how to improve our relationships, insted we make the same mistakes over and over again.

And how often do people actually go on dates anymore? Not very often. Usually its a scenario like this: "I like you" "I like you too" "Lets be boyfriend and girlfriend"......so we never go on true dates to get to know the person before we make a commitment to them.

Think about it in the old TV shows and/or movies. You saw a person you were attracted to, so you ask them out on a date. Then from that date you decide whether or not you want to go on another one. Then after quite a few dates, you then "go stedy.

If we took the time to get to know people (and ourselfs) before we commited ourselfs, then we wouldnt make all of these wrong decissions

ppl don't want to be unhappy... so they divorce if their not.

RedRabbit

Because people dream of that house with the white fence and everything is just great. They want a fairy tale. But when reality hits, it's **** that. Most of the time, it's because they can't be grownups and fix their problems.

Not everybody divorces. And no, it's not a trend. Even if it was, it would be so lame. Anyways, with that attitude of yours, I don't even know if any woman is going to want you.

EVH=God

the leading cause of divorce is... marriage

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
