Why do most married couples divorce?

Answer 1

AnswerI would venture to offer that people simply lose interest in each other. AnswerFor the same issues--incompatibilities in lifestyles and views, general disatisfaction, abuse, adultery, finances---that married people have always dealt with.

In the early twentieth century and prior to that, there were just as many strained and unhappy marriages, but divorces were much more difficult to obtain. While some couples did separate and even divorce, many felt pressure, both societal and from family, to stay in the marriage and deal with the situation. Women had fewer opportunities for financial independence, especially if they had children.

It's very expensive to get a divorce. And if you have property and IRA to split (2010)... no way!!

Answer 2

Some have concluded that no fault divorces are to blame for this condition. The truth is that many of these marriages were hastily entered into, were doomed before they began and probably should have been counseled against.

Answer 3

Firstly, most means more than 50%. Most couples do not get divorced.

It could be for one out of a hundred reasons, or a combination of part or all of them. You are correct. The divorce rate is now well over 50%, which we can indicate as most. Some reasons are as follows.

• married too young
• financial hardship
• grow apart in personal interests
• adultery
• interference by family and friends
• sickness
• domestic violence
• family crisis (for example, loss of a child)

The above are just some reasons why people get divorced.

Answer 4

Not all of them do. Most marriages last forever because the male and female were perfect for each other. As for the divorced marriages, I guess the couple loved each other very much at first, but then it simmered into a low glow and they started to see only what they did not like about the person. That's just the only reason I can think of at the moment

Answer 5

Your question is too broad to answer and the reason every couple separates is not generally public information.

Answer 6

Because when women had rights they were free,and women used to think the man of the house was in charge but the women could be in charge.

Answer 7

Many people "rush" to settle down before they're ready to handle it.
