Uhm babe. Waste of time.

He's not the one to be objective.

Obviously he believes in a situation where there is threat to life, one can divorce. Duuhhhhh. This is basically what I've been saying. But in order for him to feel good about himself and make others seem like they are the bad folks, he had to twist it and claim I'm advocating divorce for flimsy reasons.
That's not the kind of person you want to debate with.

For me it's not worth it.
I don't know what some posters always feel like they have to argue or say something about your opinion only for them to try change your own goal post for you when they are caught being insincere.
grin grin grin grin You're impossible, aren't you!

I'm anti-divorce and you are pro-divorce who believes it can be wielded for issues which can be solved and resolved with other pliable options.

Go ahead and lebel me as subjective , it's been your stock-in-trade on here.

Nice looks by the way.

Despite all you have written, I have the benefit of ALL perspectives being experience from relationship, to marriage to parenthood and back again.
Morality has no place in this discourse, rather reason.

I reiterate, LIFE happens, without stating all the things that go wrong in everyone's life, it is part of living and no one is exempt.

You cannot assert how it affects peeps, you have no knowledge or control of that. However how well anyone survives life is how adaptable they are, to the good and the bad.
How they change perspectives in order to come out stronger..no different to evolution really.
You talk of survival, I talk of living life to essence of its fulfilment. There are exceptions to every concepts, I can't deny you that. And I'm happy you find love and joy. But your case doesn't change the statistics that more second marriages globally are prone to failure!

It's a reality, a sad one. It's a fact of life
shaybebaby:
What do you mean by destinies by the way? That people must tow a path preordained and whatever lies along it must be endured?

Anyone that keeps wondering what more they could have done obviously is not thinking the right way. What could have been done differently might be a more apt question. But seeing as we cannot answer that question for errant partners, we take our own answers and apply to the next relationship, perhaps picking a more suitable mate due to the lessons of the past.
Sounds like easy escapism to the waiting arms of phantasies to me.

This shouldn't be the message preached!

Oh. I just saw this before replying your last post. So there are some situations where you believe marriage can be dissolved?
why going on like you're saying something different?

I'd hate to have wasted all this time debating with someone who's saying the same thing with me.

So which is it, do you or don't you believe that sometimes some situations require the marriage dissolved. Or was that a typo up there.

@the emboldened, so what have you been arguing about then? cheesy grin



In as much as you think of me as new to this part, I've been here very long to know you're pro-divorce.

And I disagree with you that a beating husband has earned the penalty of a divorce anymore than a slovenly, abusive wive has.


Your "extreme cases" are in most instances, going by your precedents, minor domestic scuffles.

You are wont to often advocate divorce as a quicksilver approach to most marital malee.

Divorce is only for the instance of actual intention to take life or a direct threat to it.

Every other brawl should be settled with the option of divorce far off the table.

Fair point.

But like I said, divorce is an extreme solution required in extreme circumstances.
So in my opinion there are situations requiring separation while there are some requiring outright divorce.

There's no amount of idealism that changes the fact that sometimes one is better off divorced from a horrible partner. Some people have died because they preferred to bargain with the devil.
Human beings can be wicked. If anyone unwittingly finds themselves married to such a person, the only solution is a divorce.

And there is true moving on. Albeit never easy but always better than being limbo of prolonged separation.

Now that is all I've to say on the matter. The topic is overflogged. Seems you're new to these parts
Aye, it has become well-worn here but marriage is a real human phenomenon that's part of our reality.

Is there really a time-frame for talking about it?

And... I'm lezz, been around this part long enough, my bones were actually formed here before my mind wondered away.

Only if time hasn't been taken to reflect on the lessons of that failed union. It is possible to do such and apply the lessons in the next relationship.
You're statistically wrong, dear. Time and figure have proven tellingly this is not the case.
shaybebaby:
Marriage is no different to a relationship, it's still two people in it managing their interactions albeit within a formal contract.
There's a world of difference between marriage and a romantic relationship. Not even a shack-up compares to marriage in form or relation. There's an unspoken, formless haze of responsibility and commitment that no other form of relationship carries except marriage. It could be down to the formalities, the vows, the witness, and convention, but it is nevertheless there.

shaybebaby:
When that contract is broken, the only difference is that walking away has legal ramifications in addition to the emotional ones that comes with all relationship breakdowns.
When marriage breaks down, destinies are altered and sometimes the rift in the psyche never bridges with time. There's that nagging guilt, you could have done more, even when it isn't your fault. Ladies have this feeling more wink

shaybebaby:
My marriage didn't fail because of the usual reasons i.e abuse, infidelity or even absence of love. Relationships are more complex than that.
It failed because I believed I was the one fighting to keep it whilst the ex refused to acknowledge or even address our issues..burying his head in the sand so to speak.
The power was in his hands if only he acknowledged the problem, he didn't. I had two choices, accept the status quo or walk away. I chose the latter.

A year on, I mourn the death of our union but I am happier. I have found love again and so has he. Life happens but ultimately, the power lies in our hands to make what we want of it.
Marriage, separation, divorce..it is up to us to shape as we want.
The above is your personal life I feel I don't have the moral authority to play judge or a moral analyst --- at least not on a forum.

I'm happy for you all the same.

Because divorce is an extreme solution. So news flash: (for those who have difficulties with understanding) nobody should be recommending it because one person lost their job or bla bla bla inconsequential reasons.

It is the solution in such 'extreme' cases like 'I painted' above.

And what is the difference between separation and divorce except that both parties are still holding each other from moving on even though they clearly can't and don't want to live together?
Separation offers a window of opportunity for change and hope. A divorce is brutal finality and there's no true " moving on" in a divorce situation.

The ghost of a failed marriage never ceases to haunt and hover over the next.

A separation offers a chance of sober appraisal of the union while still offering a form of physical and emotional detachments for pure reflection.

Marriage should be entered with care and even solved with greater care.

Preach separation, not divorce.

EfemenaXY:
Would you in the same vein advocate for a separation if the tables were turned? Or is it one rule for her and a different rule for him?
I believe in the indissolubility of marriage in most situations. Society and family unit is better for it.

And I would seek same measures of separation in case as this than an outright divorce no matter who's on the wrong end of it.
Family › Re: Is He Not Meeting Up To Expectations? Divorce Him! by Lezzlie(m): 8:33pm On Apr 23, 2016
cococandy:
Well that's your opinion sir
But in mine, being divorced is better than having a husband who belongs to everyone or has a side job as a panel beater who uses the wife to practice.
You paint an extreem scenario, and I'll advise separation than an outright divorce in such circumstances.

is it even an offense? Except the fellow is deliberately refusing to try.

Just that some ladies have their priorities messed up. They'd rather stick with a disrespectful wife-beating and cheating azz husband who 'provides' than an honestly loving one who's not so buoyant.

See the friend that has a 'perfect' husband grin
SMH. Sitting there collecting STDs, beatings and mouth lashing. When she is the one who should be looking for a way out of her toxic marriage.
Divorce should be the last option in a failing marriage.

Opting for it as a measure to curb a beating or cheating husband is like treating a disease whose cure is worse than the ailment

Lolz, I've been doing that, bro. As witty as she is, she loves short stories more.

And I do send her all my hand written threads for her perusal before posting grin

Nice narrative and a true depiction of the character of most married women.


And that has been the bane of some marriages.

The needless penchant for petty competition and out-shinning their neighbours' wives.

A man who finds a wife that's true to reality has found a treasure here on earth.

Wish I could take your first position, babe. kiss

How are you doing? The story is amazing, Funny enough, I knew the plot just after reading 1/3 of the story.

Women are always having the need to paint their marriages as enviable to their friends.

Living the lie is an easy take for most women.

What the boy was trying to do is bad but I still pity him

Reminds me of an experience I had when I went to greet my sis in school, we slept off without closing the window, we woke up to a guy trying to get in after cutting the thin sheet covering the window. I was still asking jamb question asking who he was before we ran outside screaming notifying our neighbours, they came to check and the guy was still hiding at the back of the window probably waiting till they left. Thank God they combed everywhere, he was lucky to escape sha. I only saw he had a black glove on, later noticed he managed to take my purse that was on the cupboard near the window. After then I look at any guy I see in that area with suspicion.
I was only a ping away. Your superman is always closer than you think. cheesy

The KNIGHTS aren't responsible for your delusions of persecution or your misplaced assessment of your worth!!!

If you keep seeing every handle as the KNIGHTS, I'm going to suspect you took the wrong pills for your severe visual hallucinations or perceptual disturbances!!! grin grin grin

Mimzy never claimed the story was hers! She admitted it right from the go it was a shared story from an offline group.


Now the lady's got some uncommon writing and creative abilities that seem to unsettle you. Other threads of hers can easily prove she's intelligent, constructive and has a knack for sound literary prosody!

I have created so many threads myself, both personally penned and those I curled offline, and, sometimes I got carried away by my need to share the story with my online readership I forget to add a link!!!


Now, the frequency with which she creates thread ruffles the rails of your sanity , no doubt, but then , can I ask you to cease screaming/typing as someone who's on the verge of a seizure ?


.....and I did read where you claimed to have withdrawn your support.

The KNIGHTS have done solicitation and appeal for support from respectable and well-meaning romanlanders, but not from you. Not even your dozens of alternates..

Saintsamurai
MrNipples
Lordsumarai
Softappless1/10
Lordsumarai 1/10 etc

Not all these monikers which have become catchphrases for nuisances, petty banter, unintelligent comments and desperate püssy-poaching qualified you for our support.
