"Now I know that sometimes even after you try everything to make it work it still might not."

To everyone who seems to believe I am passing judgment, making generalizations and so on and so forth you ALL neglected the fact that I said that. I am not ignorant to the fact that people DO try. I am NOT ignorant to the fact that everyone has they're reasons for separating. But I also know there are a good number of people who get married out of convince, to young, are forced into it by family and the reasons for a waste of time marriage are endless. For all of you who have had the pain for going though a divorce I'm deeply sorry you went through whatever it is that lead you to it. I'm assuming everyone who is severely pissed about my post had a good reason for divorce or knows someone who had a good reason for divorce. Like I said sometimes trying doesn't work.
I WILL NOT change my opinion on thinking it is sad that divorces are listed in the paper and that marriage is often taken lightly.

Everyone of you is entitled to their own opinion but learn how to read. I didn't drag out the fact that I know that even after you try getting out is still the best thing because that's just not what I was talking about in this post but I did throw that in there because I DO know this.

    I respect anyone who has already decided that they will not, under any circumstances change their opinion on something in the future.

    Like this statement.

    As for staying on topic. I will be happily married for 2 years on the 23rd of this month, so I'm very much a novice but I'm in this for the long haul. It took me 7 years to decide marry this man and I'm fairly sure I'm set in my decision.

    But what do I know, I'm young and nieve.

    I must've missed the first go-around.

    Are we just talking traditional marriages? How about "domestic partnerships"?

    Sometimes, divorce is definitely necessary. My Mom, for example, tried her best to make the marriage with my father work. However, my dad is crazy. No seriously, the man lost his mind. My mother separated for a short period of time, and the night she, him, and I were a family again, my dad threw hot fish grease on me. He was an abusive man in more ways than one. I later had some people look into his background and he lied about everything he told my Mom, down to his birth place. Personally, I think she got married to young out of rebellion, but in her case, a divorce was absolutely necessary to keep him away from me.

    After looking at what happened to her, I dont not take marriage or divorce lightly. I am 25 and have never even been engaged. I usually cut the ties if I dont feel its perfect. Even if I do get engaged, it will be a long engagement. None of this shot gun wedding stuff. Im glad there is an option to get divorced, but I will admit, I think some people dont take the union of marriage as serious as it should be (In my head, a marriage can be between two people regardless of sex. Who am I to judge other people in that respect?).

    Doesn't matter how hard one person is trying; if the other isn't, it won't work. That's why I left my first three wives.

    ....errrr, I mean, they left me.
