Divorce rates......this is so true?

divorce rates................?

Do you agree with this statement? Before you answer, please state if you are single, married or divorced.

"People are accepting when things are not right and moving on to a life they probably never thought they could have.". It is this exact strength of this ideology that makes it a weakness. People have become so passive that they just move on when things don't work out. Dating, relationships, Marriage for western society has become a selfish endeavor, where personal benefit, rather than mutual tolerance and sacrifice predominate. Also don't forget that if your first marriage did not go well, your second marriage's chances of divorce are significantly increased. Most 2nd marriages end up in divorce with in the first few years.

Divorce brings itself with depression, isolation and a weakening of familial values, which are the indicators of a society moving towards valuelessness and numbness. Family is the most fundamental unit of the society. When families breakdown, there is weakening in the fabric of the society. It sure is indication of dilution of values and place of morality in the society. When a society grows weaker, soon it begins to show in the national character. Rise and fall of nations can not be seen only in economic or military powers, but need to be seen inner moral courage of its people.

"People are accepting when things are not right and moving on to a life they probably never thought they could have. " - once again is a very selfish ideology and true love has little place of selfishness. This statement also preludes us to the notion of "grass is greener on the other side" mentality, which is usually not the case. For example, what happens often is a marriage partner may constantly think that she/he settled for less, hence dreaming about what their life might be like without the current situation, hence leading to divorce.

    Married. Together for 18 years and married for 16.

    I think ppl forget "for better or worse" and it's just easier for them to walk away than to try to fix the problem. I feel our kids are going to grow up thinking marriage is a joke. Too many ppl also forget "forsaking all other"- it's a shame. I haven't been happy for probably the last 6 years- but we've gone to counselors off and on (with no luck) but we STILL are together!
