What factors do you think contribute most to divorce? What factors do you think contribute most to couples staying together? Do you think divorce is sometimes the best resort when a marriage experiences difficulties?

i think that a lack of communication is one of the biggest causes for divorce. i am speaking from personal experience. i am not divorced (yet) but my marriage is slowly crumbling over a lack of communication. also, trust issues are making living with him unbearable right now. i wouldn't necessarily say divorce could ever be the best option (unless there is abuse involved) because it is such a lifechanging thing and both spouses may not be ready to be on their own after being in such a long relationship

I think there are a lot of reasons that people think they should not be together anymore...some are more serious than others. I think that divorce should be the last resort but sometimes I think that people don't take their promise to one another as seriously as they should.
