When Troubled Marriage Leads to Divorce Questions
|
When you gotmarried you didn't expect to have a troubled marriage. Like virtually everybodyelse, you ignored the statistics and even discounted your friends and familymembers who had gone through divorce. You got married with expectations of alifetime of harmony. The idea of asking divorcequestions onlycomes about when everything on the horizon looks bleak. Atsome point in a troubled marriage aperson has to ask themselves if what they are going through is worth it. When you nolonger see a way out of the suffering it is perfectly natural to weigh youroptions and start looking at the repercussions of getting a divorce. Mostpeople at that point are in survival mode which means the first questions areprobably not even the correct ones. Divorce is theequivalent of abandoning ship; it is not a decision that people take lightly.They only do it when there is no hope, in fear for their very lives. It is agreat misfortune that people are led to believe there is no hope when the truthis the likelihood of your marriage being incredible is far greater than thelikelihood of your marriage coming to an end, but if only you knew how!
The Divorce Rate in our Country Defines Ignorance - notStupidity or Psychological Dysfunction
You have beenmisled to believe marriage is difficult and requires compatibility, dailyeffort and sacrifice. Our societyspends so much effort on educating its children about mathematics, literatureand so on, but absolutely no effort on the most important aspects of living.There are no courses in public schools that teach intra-gender relationshipskills or communication skills. There are no courses that instruct childrenabout what to expect or look for in marriage relationships. The art of marriageis virtually unknown in our culture. Young men and women typically define asuitable mate based on chemistry and looks and similar tastes in movies. Forthis reason even the most suitable married couples have a very difficult timebeing married because they simply do not know what is required of them.
