Yes, it is considered abandonment. Even with extenuating circumstances, a marraige is not just giving your word to the one you love and want to spend the rest of your life with in front of God and the community, but has become more of a legal contract. When you sign on that dotted line and get that license, take those blood tests (where mandated), and have the ceremony performed, you are technically entering into a contract by law. If you decide at a later date you have made a mistake, you must go through the proper legal channels to correct it. So throwing them out violates the contract and would be considered abandonment in the United States of America.
