[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would give me pause. I am in my late 30s and have 4 close friends who have already divorced. In 3 out of 4 of those cases, the person asking for the divorce has divorced parents. The outlier has parents who are still married but went through multiple separations when the family was young. [/quote]

I agree. I think the more that divorce is normalized growing up, the more likely someone will turn to it. [/quote]'

Divorce is not a sign of failure and there is nothing wrong with it.

[i][b]Regular people[/b][/i] think a successful marriage is one that never ends. That mindset is a problem in it self.[/quote]

well, the agreement was "until death you us part" so if the wife decides to bail out of the relationship as they do by filing for divorce 70-80% of the time then, yes they were not successful because they didn't keep their commitment. Calling divorce a "successful marriage" is like saying you successfully ran a marathon when you chose to stop at the third mile mark.

The wife files for divorce because of the man's actions. Have you read any of these infidelity posts?[/quote]

You don't get it.  There are people who are looking for "till death.." mindset because they need partners who'll stick it out no matter what kind of crap they'll have to put up with.  They belive in that unconditional live where no matter how badly you treat your partner, it's hey, at least we are married.[/quote]
That's sad that's your outlook. I want a "till death" mindset because I don't want to ever worry that my partner will leave me hanging. I want to be able to get sick or struggle and know we're in it together and I want him to know that I won't leave him when he's struggling too. We are a team and we aren't quitting the team. I don't intend to abuse him. [/quote]
