Every couple has those things that will cause them to get divorced. Mine are cheating, abusing me or my children physically or emotionaly, and addiction(drugs or alcohol). My husband and I talked and came up with these three things long before we married and vowed to never do these things. For those married or in a serious relationship, did you discuss grounds for breakup? If so, what are yours?

I think my current boyfriend has pretty much got away with breaking almost all my rule breakers... physical abuse, emotional abuse only towards myself never towards my son. Also cheating and just demintiting my sense of wealth. The longer that you put up with the things that you never thought you could accept... makes you feel as though you no longer deserve to be treated well and loose the ability to trust in love and your lover. Trust is so hard to get back in a relationship. I honestly believe that, once you loose someone it is never the exact same person who comes back. I wish i had more courage and self respect to demand the respect that i deserve and suffer through the pain of a broken heart without wanting to run back all the time. Love works in mysterious ways.
