I think the over hype about marriage and the media projection of marriage and love is responsible. We get very excited about marriage and set high expectations, and when we get close to reality, we lose interest. Parents also play some part in India, where they have the rather dumb old fashion of choosing the marrying parties. Hope, this changes soon and divorce rate come down.

i think that inability to handle and balance pressures at home, work, relationships.....also we expect much and that leads to it......we must learn to compromise, forgive and forget

Many Resons: 1. Lack of mutual understandings. 2. Living in such an independent environment, so, donot compromise for each other. 3. Had relationships before marriage. 4. Donot like to live with one only. 5. No Trust among themselves. 6. Lack of love interest among themselves.

well I don't think there are too many divorces nowadays...its just that marriage doesn't represent the same it used to some decades ago. Society nowadays is very individualistic and competitive, and that doesn't help. Also you have to consider that people are no longer willing to put up with things that our grandparents didn't even question. Even mistreat not so long ago was seen as something that came up with the marriage kit so that you had to put up with it, and nowadays that's changing. Everything these days is faster, sometimes even disposable, and i guess marriage is getting contaminated by it.

Too many people these days think of everything as being disposable, including marriages. They do not have the backbone to stick it out through bad times. In the long run, they are the bog losers.

the main reason behind the divorces are the lack of trust between the couples. they are not loyal to each other after marriage and this is the major cuase behind the divorces. this can be stopped by creating awareness between the couples. have a nice day.

I think the answer is to many selfish people. I knew this guy once who complained that his wife wouldn't let him buy this fifteen thousand dollar motorcycle. One day he finaly got it. Rode it for about two weeks and then started looking for someone to buy it. This is the same problem that infects marriage. People start feeling sorry for themselves. They look into lost opportunities that are nothing but what if's and then they screw their lives up. I'm very happily married and couldn't give a crap what people have to say about my life or my marriage. I don't regret missing out on anything in my past or future and am content with having someone I know loves me and who in return appreciates the fact that I love them. Thats all that should matter.

i think lack of trust is the reason for all of these divorces..people loose trust from their partners very easily...

Too good that we don't have divorce here in our country. As per your question, because divorce is just right there, anytime it's available, that's one of the reason why those couples are playing around with marriage, they both think that anytime they don't like their partner they can seek for a divorce immediately, if this divorce law was not been approved by one's government, I think they will think not only twice but 100th's times before getting into marriage.

lack of understanding, third party, not happy with the relationship, financial matter, this is the common factors that leads to DIVORCE......but we have to surpass this only if we really love our partner in life..and not rush unto conclusion that the best possible thing to settle those problem is through DIVORCE.. which is a big problem for the side of the children who will suffer all the consequences in life..a broken family..for the sake of the children and in the eyes of god we should think it over and talked it with my passion, so that it will not lead to divorce.
