yes it sounds weird when people after 30-40 years after their marriage they divorce. I cannot imagine after living with somebody for so long how can they do that. Divorce in the hollywood industries are different but these days normal people are also tends to do that. Marriage should be taken seriously.

thanks, exactly nowadays even for the smallest of issues people endup divorcing each other,its no joke, in a relationship one needs to be understanding and also compromising.if they lack either of it then they will for sure have to face consequences.

I do not think that u stop loving someone after that time, maybe they have been living a lie for a long time and finally agree that it is time to move on and do something else instead. I think that after 30 years you need to have more than love to keep it together.

ya you are right,but does it take so long for someone to realise that they cant get along.? 30 yrs is no joke its like spending half your life with the partner and then all of a sudden you want to split.and how long can one live a lie for such a long time.? what is it that needs the relation to keep going other than love.?

I've seen that too and it has always puzzled me. After that long, you'd think they would have found a way to make just about anything work for them.
