Well, I am not sure about you folks but it aint good for a wife and a husband to stick together for the rest of their life. I think when they feel they have reached it they should simply accept to get separated and each to find their better life .

Marriage life is no different from a person owning a car and drive it for so long without wanting to exchange it for a latest model. I think it is really sick seeing man and wife living together until they are old!. They eventually becomes like brothers and sisters because they no longer interested in love but just care for each others.

We should get a better life. Enjoy it while we steel alive! Who knows what’s gonna happen when you die or how it's gonna be! .

I happen to agree with you.

I do not think people should stay together just for the sake of the children.

That being said, my ex husband and I stayed together longer, because the children bonded us together...

I think they should stick together if that is what they want..

but for children big mistake..they are the ones that will

be hurt in the long run..

but alot of people that are older and been together for many
years are just comfortable in their life and done want to
end it and start all over...

If they are not constantly fighting or what have you..then i see
no reason why they should leave the life separatly

I wouldnt..

If Eric and I stayed together for the next 30 years or so..and fell out of love but could tolerate each other..Hell yes i would
stay.

Dizzidi..i aint surprise

What happen when a woman is divorced?. Do you think she would have the same respect as she used to?.

I know hundred of divorced women, they kind of like wish they are back to their first husbands even if they were married to another person.

Did you know that, most of divorced women tend to deceive their married girl friends!!. They will kind of tell them they are happier than when they were married, they will advice their friends to get divorced for a simple reason and be like them, free like mosquitos that can bite any creature at any time they wish to.

Most of divorced women were being deceived to get divorced, do you know what they do!!, they too do the same to other members of their friends and life goes on.

Hello lovely...

People do don't they? Think that they have to sacrifice their life for their children.

You know, I often get people ask me, why I do not live with my children, given that they are at college in the UK, they seem to think that I am a bad mother, because I wanted to move here, but they are not just my children, they are their father's too and he has 50% of the responsibility to them that I do.

They both deserve a right to a healthy balanced relationship with both parents and that is what they get.

But I am not going to sit at home, just because I have to with my children so that I can conform to what soceity expects of me, sod that, I ahve a great relationship with my children and that will always remain, but I deserve a life too and I have one...

They are my priority, but I would be failing as a person if I was to be a martyr to them, and in turn I would end up miserable and resentful.

I was a very unhappy bunny in my marriage, as was he, so the best for the children was to end that unhappiness as it was making them unhappy, they did not deserve that. And neither did he.

I agree. If both parents are miserable, and treating each other badly, or one is treating the other badly, then this is not good for the children any more than it is for the two people involved. I made some hard decisions when my sons were little, but I don't regret them one bit. And they're growing up to be very wonderful young men. If I'd stayed, I don't think that they would have become this way at all, or that we'd have the relationship we do now.

fall out of love..if they still care about each other nothing
wrong with that..

Absolutely... I´ve been happily divorced for 25 years and firmly believe that a woman is entitled to an upgrade at least once a year. I mean with all the new younger models becoming available each year why would a woman stick with a worn out model?

Better yet, now you can just do a few test drives and take out a short term lease on the model of your choice....grin

Children should not dictate that a couple stays together...

Not a healthy, positive and nurturing enviro if the couple are not getting on.

laugh... lets see how you are feeling when your wife has traded you in..

Most parents love their children more than anything.. so putting their kids at the forefront of their decision making is a pretty reasonable thing to do in my estimation.. also, according to my observations.. marriages that overcome and endure challenges are the strongest and most loving..
