What was the reason you divorced your spouse?

Question

Or if you never married, why would you divorce?

I married once and never divorced. But I'll go ahead and say cheating... financial, sexual, and all the different kinds of cheating.

Sometimes people need to get put in their place, but it becomes toxic when one party is putting the other in their place all the time for shit they didn't even do. This would be another big ass reason people probably end up saying they've had enough. Like, everybody has boundaries.

The biggest problem I see in society though... people step into marriage to divorce eventually all to begin with. Like, they planned on doing it right from the start. Financial gain is what I see most of the time. So the advice I'd give any man... don't make yourself a target for gold diggers. Don't show off anything you have. For reals, if she asks how much money you have... tell her you're broke and in debt. I guess that advice could go for females too actually. "Love" shouldn't be based on that shit... the fact that it so often is, is just sick. I'd also suggest actually getting to know each other for a few years at least first. Rushing into such an arrangement has motives behind it... that's not going to be healthy down the road.

Why did I finally marry... she's still in the military. We lived together for years. I hate the idea of marriage, but they would send her overseas or some shit and I just don't think LDR's are healthy at all. So we kind of got pushed into it just to be together at all. Married now for like almost 2 decades. But I still believe the entire idea and institution of marriage is simply bullshit... at least in this day and age.

I married late, still going good. Never divorced. but had my share of being dunce and painful relationship. I learned a lot about myself and people in general.

Others' I've seen... just wanted different things, stress and lack of compromise, unwilling to change... e. g. incompatible. We're all incompatible... but you have to make a choice to communicate, adjust and work effectively together while keeping the stress at the right level and maintain connection. Ignoring problems is a cause, avoiding is a cause.

Cheating is a cause of some, but the root of cheating I suspect is something else... details I don't know.

After 20 years, we agreed to amicably divorce. After our kids were grown, there wasn't that much in common for us, since we got married primarily in the first place to raise a family. FYI... we're still on good terms, years after the divorce.

I was always told marriage was difficult and you had to “stay in the game.” However, I never learned the difference between abuse and merely difficult behavior. Long story short, I endured her borderline personality disorder and abusive behavior for years until we had a child. When I saw that the child quickly learned I was not a person to be respected, I knew I had to divorce. No amount of counseling helped. As soon as I moved out the child started to respect me and behave better. My mental and physical health improved too even though the divorce cost me greatly as the courts tend to favor women.

I am married and don't plan on getting divorced, but a guess would be pornography or sex addiction would cause some people to not be satisfied with a single partner and grow unhappy and then leave to hoe around again.

Reason for divorce always boils down to someone feels their needs aren't being met by their partner. I don't think divorce should be an option for people unless there is fault, ie infidelity, abuse, etc. It would make people be a little more selective on who they married.

TonyMetal___86 · Answer

I don't believe in divorce, she was the one to file for a divorce and i have accepted cause she left no room for keeping the marriage...

The reasons that she have mentioned are: physical abuse, mental abuse, doesn't love me anymore and that the whole marriage thing with me was a fault 😏

The final decision: she lost everything, so go figure it out...

I could come up with many reasons why I could divorce... but they're all quite obviously bad stuff, lol cheating is one, though

FunkyMonkee · Answer

I've never been married but, the reason I left her was because I discovered I could no longer trust her and because I found out she was cheating on me!!

divorce is not an option for me. my parents divorced and it devastated me, even still to this day. i will NOT follow those footsteps. it would have to be something extremely bad for me to consider it.

coolbreeze · Answer

I think the main reason people divorce is over money and infidelity issues.

katiesmuff · Answer

Cheating, cruel treatment to me or kids, drug use, lazy and not keep a job would pretty much be the reasons I would bail.

Anonymous · Answer

considering the VAST majority of divorces are caused/initiated by women. your question is best directed at them. Most men dont want divorce, its forced on us.
