It saddens me to see the divorce rate in this country continually on the rise. I view marriage between two people as something sacred. And it seems now more than ever that people are going outside of their marriages and cheating on their spouses. You not only are making these vows to the other person, but also to God, or whatever higher being that you believe in, and to break these vows seems not to be a big deal anymore. Sure it is not healthy to stay with someone if all you do is fight and you are not getting along at all, but many couples jump into this bond without any forethought. Many do not think about how their failed relationship will affect their children. And anyone who grew up in a single home knows how it feels. People should think things out before marrying--maybe cut out some of these eloping and Vegas weddings, and once in a marriage, be patient and try to work it out before giving up.

Coming from a divorced family I can understand why you're upset. It makes me sad... although I can see why my parents ending up getting a divorce. I don't know why it didn't happen sooner to be honest... in any case, if it doesn't work out after they try to work it out then it may be for the better.

Yeah I agree that if trying to work out leads to failure then maybe splitting up is best for everybody involved. I guess what really makes me upset is people getting married who have no business getting married because then you're only setting yourselves up for divorce. And then people who have no business having children end up having children. Example-on Oprah, she did a show about husbands cheating on the wives. One guy had two steady girlfriends, then decided to marry one. He broke it off with girl # 2, got married, then after getting back from the honeymoon, he cheated on his wife with the former girl#2. Why get married if you know you shouldnt be married?
I agree. People first need to think it out before marrying in the midst of their lust.
