7 Reasons Why Divorces Really Happen

By:


Everyone marries with the hope of a lifetime of happiness. It is unfortunate that divorce becomes a harsh reality that ends this contract. These are the 7 common reasons for divorce.

1. Infidelity: Studies prove that adultery occurring in one of every two marriages that have failed. It naturally follows that one in every three divorces in the US cites infidelity as the reason.

2. Physical, mental, sexual and emotional abuse by either spouse is another common reason for divorce. Due to this children and the parents have to pass through traumatic times and divorce seems the most sensible solution to end the ongoing struggle, day in and day out, in the family.

3. Alcohol and substance abuse is unfortunately quite common and leads to the gradual disintegration of the marriage. The addiction leads to a plunge in the family's finances, self esteem and social acceptance, leading to divorce.

4. Breakdown in communication because partners lose interest in each other, they are so immersed in their respective careers, responsibilities or because they have nothing to talk about is a common enough reason for a marriage to start crumbling.

5. Contradicting expectations regarding the children, the family finances, the running of the household and social commitments provide a strong premise for discord in marriage leading to divorce.

6. Intellectual and sexual incompatibility is strong enough reason for discord among partners. When there is no room for compromise, understanding, tolerance or acceptance in the face of such an incompatibility, couples opt for separation as the best solution

7. Serious problems like severe symptoms of mental illness in a spouse or his/her criminal behavior often has divorce as the only workable option.
