Princewell2012:


Op this is the most sensible post or comments i have ever read this year.

Infact am short of words. When i show my wife this ur comment, come and see the she was shouting for excitement.

Yes, since you gathered people as a witness you should know how to gathered those people for a divorce or separation.

God bless you sir.

JoeCutie:
I agree with you, Op, but there's one very important condition that'd make lots of sense if included in that list.

* If the man met the woman a virgin (or vice versa), and eventually deflowered her, for the divorce to be successfully effected, he must undo what he did. He must seal her back to being a virgin. How will you deflower me and divorce me on top? Is it how you use to do? You must seal me back oh.

Everyday we see couples getting joined together in holy matrimony.We have seen countless pre-wedding pictures and often times many travel to different choice countries to have their wedding ceremony.Lots of money is expended and the glamor of solemnization can not be over emphasized.

But ironically,if the two divorce,it is done with such levity and many people who witnessed the joining together will hardly know the same couple are no longer together and i tend to wonder how unfair it is that so much noise was made when the wedding was one but if they choose to go separate ways,it is never done with same funfair.

Lets think about it,I believe if Governments across the globe makes a constitution that guides marital dissolution, we just might see some sanity coming into the institution and many will think twice before embarking on the marriage or divorce.

The following conditions will make lots of sense.

1.That a government official will supervise the spending on a wedding ceremony and ensures that same amount is spent on the divorce.

2.That all expenses must be shouldered by the erring partner or the faulty partner risks 20 years in prison.

3.Divorce invitation cards must be printed and served to guests and equal number of invitees present at the wedding must be present for the divorce and the divorce ceremony must hold in the same venue used for the wedding ceremony.

4.Divorce cake must be made.

5.Same Musical band must be invited and foods and drinks adequately served.

6.Every other details involved in the joining together must be present in the dissolution process.

If this measure is put in place guess there will be sanity in marriages and maximum respect will be accorded to this great and sacred institution created by GOD.

I hope this makes sense.

Lol........

Very funny!


op, most marriages that ends with divorce are usually embittered. It is out of that bitterness that makes one to prefer walking away or the two agreeing to go their separate ways.

Many people who got divorced do not really wish they're divorcée, they probably can't take it again, they've been probably pushed to the wall, hence, their resort to separation/divorce.


90% of divorcee are not happy being divorced, but they take consolation in "being divorced is better than being dead", hence, their choice.


Now, that being said, if the measures you put up there are to be adopted, first remember that no one actually loves to celebrate failure, unhappiness, unfulfillment. No one will want people to know that he/she has failed in that area, no one will want to spend money on what do not make them happy.


However, as you have opined, if the govt should make such laws as you have recommended, it may truly bring sanity to the marital institution, but not totally, because some people after being totally fed up with the marriage, will instead kill himself, or the spouse or both than celebrating divorce.




In a nutshell, if govt should put up these measures, there will be so many horrible stories of spouses killing themselves.

My own suggestion............ if your marriage is or has become life-threatening, simply walk out before it is too late. It is only when one is alive that such can remain married.
May God help us.

I almost agree with you but this is not always the case of many broken home.
What you fail to understand is that 20% of divorce cases are agreed upon by both parties. But what usually happen that many home break these days is as a result of one partner getting tired of the other. It's never the will of both parties. one wish to leave and the other wish to stay. But because there is no compromise they result to leaving each other. It's an unfortunate situation, I believe only few cases would both agree to separate. Hence coming together to have a divorce ceremony is not possible. Thanks

the marriage pledge should be amended to include "...till divorce or death do us part, whichever that comes first"

I almost agree with you, but where did you get your statistics from?

Rockmyworld:

Common it's what we see daily. People tends to either fall out of love or get tired of a particular situation. And most cases one partner would want out why the other would want to continue. And when there is going to be more problem staying together, one tends to leave the other. Definitely one of the partner would be heart broken. But there are also few cases where both parties would agree that they're not good for each other and hence need for separation. Just few agree together for divorce. Those few are the ones that can celebrate.

But when you Also restrict someone from leaving his or her marriage then, you'll cause more harm than good. Many people pretend to be who they're not before marriage and if you don't have freedom to move forward. Then you're dead. We hear cases of domestic violence every day and cases of abuses. I'll never advice anyone to stay in an abused marriage never. Your life is more precious than that. Such union is meant to make you happy not sad and sorrowful. Please let's love genuinely
