Kthebean Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 OK I know there are all sorts of answers to that question, but I am interested, I've never experienced a divorcing couple first hand. If everyone starts out happy and in love why don't more people stay that way? Is it just real life gets in the way, or is it how hard you can work at it? Can you really just fall out of love with someone if you loved them that much in the first place to marry them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kookymonster Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 People mess things up, they can destroy each other's trust, grow apart, cheat on one another. All sorts of things can upset the balance of a relationship. Divorce is a better option than living in misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beamer Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Lots of marriages end in divorce for various reasons!!!! Loss of love adultry violence money problems and probably many more.These things happen for a reason,and yes you can just stop loving someone after many many years.

Can you really just fall out of love with someone if you loved them that much in the first place to marry them? when youve been with somebody for a long time you start getting bored, take each other for granted, lose interest, start arguing, lose the things you had in common ive been with my missus for 18 years and we are experiencing all the above tbh all we seem to have in common now is 2 kids and we live in the same house, occasionly we have sex..thats about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kthebean Posted September 8, 2006 Author Share Posted September 8, 2006 Is there any hope then? Can you actively avoid that stuff or do we just have a loveless future to look forward to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koenigsinger Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 sometimes you just drift apart, and no matter how hard you try to hold on for whatever reason, all you end up doing is making each other miserable, best to cut your losses and start over.

kookymonster Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 We drifted apart a little, he was working loads of hours and I sat at home feeling miserable with 2 small kids. However I started college and now I feel I have something to talk about with him again, he's really made an effort and it has paid off, he's fallen madly for me again. I'm happier now, we still argue but sometimes you can work through a rough patch if there is enough still there. We've been together 8 years now.
