A lawyer who has dealt with 400 divorce cases has revealed four cruel truths about marriage, which is very realistic and dreary.
In an interview with glass man, the host Jiang Sida invited a lawyer who had dealt with 400 divorce cases.
She had seen all kinds of scenes of divorce, robbing children, splitting houses, tearing faces, and there was no decency to speak of.

In divorce, women want children and men want property

There was a group of data that showed that 78% of men would want children in marriage, but less than 20% would want children in divorce. For many men, after all, property is more important than children. Property will increase, and children will be a burden.

A reader said that after she gave birth to the child, she was alone at home to take care of the child. Her husband often came back late and never looked after the child when he came back. Sometimes the child was crying and he felt noisy. And women's natural motherhood is always more concerned about their children.
Men always say that career and dream are important, but they don't know what women at home have undertaken for him.

They enjoy being fathers, but they don't want to take the responsibility behind them

Nowadays, 70% of divorces are initiated by women

According to the "big data on divorce disputes" report released by China's Supreme People's court, among the 1.4 million divorce cases in 2017, the proportion of women among plaintiffs actually reached 73.40%!

Why is that? The divorce lawyer said men tend to mature less mentally than women. Women will think, why do I marry someone? I have to take care of the children and my husband.

Yes, some marriages are shelters for men, but chains for women. In the youth school, Wang Shengnan and Lin Dawei are the best examples. His wife Wang Shengnan has to worry about the water and electricity supply at home, the education of the children and the health of the elderly, while Lin Dawei only cares about his own career.

In such a marriage, women will inevitably feel tired. Wang Shengnan said more than once that she wanted to divorce because she felt that she had lived for others for most of her life and had never fought for herself.

Character incompatibility destroys 90% of marriages
The divorce lawyer said many couples divorce because of personality differences.

In fact, what really kills the marriage is not the cheating and domestic violence, but the superposition of various trivial things in the process of getting along.

Similarly, Su Mingcheng and Julie are in "everything is fine". Su Mingcheng is a male mother. When he is short of food and clothing, he goes home to ask his parents for it, and even empties his family.
But Julie thought it was wrong, so she kept trying to pay back the money. Moreover, Su Mingcheng wants to be small and broad, while Julie thinks that she should be conservative.
All kinds of conflicts broke out and the two men finally divorced.
The biggest problem is that your pursuit of future life is not consistent, and your measurement of current life is not consistent. These fundamental problems will inevitably make you unable to understand each other, so as to quarrel, cold violence, and even infidelity.

The loneliness and indifference in marriage are often due to personality incompatibility

Great thread,

Its much worse in Nigeria where women are expected to tolerate infidelity and laziness on the husband's part and be co breadwinner and submissive slave at the same time.

The longer the working hours, the higher the divorce rate
The real ideal marriage should be contentment, the house can be small, the income can be limited, but we enjoy the process.
When we are in love, we want to be with each other for 24 hours. You will pay attention to each other's every move. But after entering the marriage, because of various reasons, the heart between husband and wife becomes more and more distant.
Once saw a short film, the male host is very busy every day. When he comes home, he still holds the computer to work. His wife is talking to him on one side, and he is just perfunctory.
As time goes by, the relationship between husband and wife is indifferent, and his wife feels that the home is cold and there is no smoke and anger, and she looks sad all day long.
In an accidental cleaning, she found a tape recorder, which recorded the sound of their home. Except for the sound of closing the door and the sound of water, the voice was seldom heard. More often than not, the wife said it, but the husband did not respond.
The most terrible thing about widowed marriage is that women regard family as everything, while men regard home as hotel. A person's loneliness is not terrible, what is terrible is to end up with the person who makes himself lonely.
There is a line in the movie "day face": "to get married is to lose enthusiasm in exchange for stability. After three years, the husband will only treat his wife as a refrigerator, always feel that as long as the door is opened, there will be food to eat at any time. It's very inconvenient if it's broken, but it's never maintained. "
Marriage needs to be managed by two people. If either party is slack, it is hard for you to be happy.

I hope you will cherish marriage more, because a marriage must be beautiful at the beginning. Only in the process of marriage, both sides continue to hurt it, it will collapse, cherish each other.

Thank you for reading. What other cruel truths do you think exist in marriage?
Welcome to leave a message for discussion.

My reason for sharing this post, is for us to learn from other people's. mistake or failure in marriage.
Bishop Oyedepo once said that when he wanted to get married alot of people discouraged him, they told him the marriage will not work, marriage is hard and all that.

This is what he said he did, he picked up a lot of books on marriages, read and read, did a research on the problems in marriage and how to overcome them.

Then he said he told them my marriage cannot fail, I already have the solution.

Yes marriage needs to be maintained by two people, but Nigerian women are told to "build their homes" while husbands rarely ever hear that line.

Stopped taking the whole article serious after reading the emboldened, lmao. grin

Women are absolutely not more matured than men on average. Yes, girls start maturing at an earlier age than boys and usually at a faster rate, but they plateau very early because of the overwhelming attention they get from the opposite gender. Boys start slightly later, at a slightly slower rate but for much longer.

Na woman opinion so it won't be factual. Men prefer properties to children yet we see stories of men fighting their ex-wifes just to see their kids and women fighting their ex-husbands over properties. Case of reverse psychology.

Oga next time don't copy and paste. Show us that you at aleast went to school. Nonsense

@ The bold, I don't know many marriages like what you've described here. I only know of two that fit this description.

I am surrounded by more married folks who have tension in their homes because of one thing or the other and who feel trapped in their marriages.

Even men are not left out of the complaining these days. It's in their nature to bottle things up, but, the two who have opened up are not finding it funny, either.

One person even told me to pls look well before I leap, according to her this thing (marriage) is for a lifetime, till death do you part.

So, if you go and marry a useless man that doesn't want to die or is refusing to die on time, you're in for a very long something. I just bust laugh that day.grin


Single life like married life has its ups and downs. That's life.

Well historically women are usually more trained to uphold a marriage. To build their homes. To persevere and endure. Because it’s supposed to be their prize. Their reward for being “good”.


There’s no doubt things won’t improve if we keep doing things the same way and expect a different result.
