What is the number one factor that drives wedges between spouses and is largely responsible for the majority of the divorces in the UK?

Divorce is a complex matter. It gets more complicated when various divorce myths colour the picture further. Some myths are baseless. They exist only in the mind. But, at the same time, it is impossible to challenge these myths. It is easier to accept them.

It is rare to see marriages complete a long run successfully in the present scenario. About 60% of marriages end up in divorce nowadays. It has become a common occurrence adversely affecting the social structure. Marriage as an institution is supposed to be the very basis of society.

Though divorce has become a common stigma in the society, we invariably expect a person to be emotionally and financially broken due to it.

When people get married, it probably goes down as one of the happiest moments in their lives. That is, of course, till the honeymoon is over and the trials and tribulations of everyday life take over.

It is often claimed that motherhood is a ‘biological fact’ while fatherhood is a ‘sociological invention’.

Every marriage is unique and so is every divorce. No divorce is joy-inducing but, then, neither is a corrosive marriage.

With the ever-increasing rate of divorce, it can be considered surprising that people still do want to marry. It seems that people’s faith in the institution of marriage is still strong and for some, marriage is still sacred. Getting married is not just about gathering friends and family and obtaining a piece of marriage certificate.

Divorce is a painful process that leaves behind a residue of negative emotions. It is crucial to resolve all emotional issues and sift through the emotional turmoil before proceeding to begin life anew on your own terms.

No man or woman getting married ever thinks that the relationship is going to end anytime soon. Indeed, most really mean it when they utter the vow of “until death do us apart” and wish that they remain not only life partners but lifelong partners.
