Marriage is Sacred

So.. lets say you been married for 30 years... is this a good/legit reason not to file a divorce paper? I mean... you spent 30 years with this person who you claim to the world you're gonna love and care about.. to the end of time erb... *insert cheesy romance terms*

but... sometimes... one's a fool and simply try to ignore the problem of marriage... and after 30 years... and already settling down... already having kids... are you willing to still file a divorce paper? You say you don't love this person and yet... you been with him/her for 30 years.

What would you do? Smile

Is this something that you know of someone close to you that's currently going through?

That's a grey area, as there's no right or wrong anwser to the decision... I see marriage as a gamble, really, it's risk that you're taking. You must remember that the other is taking the same risk as you are too, or should be... the real deal breaker comes in where as the two have conflicts b/w their visions and how they see things.... That makes it hard b/c they don't see the same thing, which is sad.. Therefore, if makes sense, divorce may be the answer...

However I do agree that a marriage is for life and both parties should know what the conseqences are before making any concrete decision making... Hope this helps answer your thoughts..

I'm not saying that just because you've spent 30 years with someone, you shouldn't get divorce. I strongly believe there are only two good reasons for divorce and that is if one of them have committed adultery or is abusive. In the other cases, if they really want to, they can make it work. It might be hard but compromising and re-learning about each other will definitely help. When you've been together 30 yrs with kids, then it's not just about you any more. You have to think about the children and you definitely have to think about the other person. Marriage is sacred, but many people see divorce as away to escape if marriage doesn't turn out to be what they wanted. Sad truth is, even if they get divorced and remarried, it'll jux be a repeat but with a different person. - Sara

30 years of marriage is pretty significate, I applaud anyone couple who's been together that long. But in todays time, that's rare. Let say that one of them chose to divorce the other. Well, the other person should respect that request.

There's a lot of pro's and con's when it comes to this topic. Some may argue that they should stay together because they've been together that long and just work it out. Others would say that 30 years of being together is way too long. So, it would depend on the the person in general and what his/her reason(Drunk would be.

Personally, I think that if two people have been together that long and one wants a divorce, then there a major issue that he/she is dealing with that requires the separation. What ever those issue may be, let God help him/her overcome.
