Just wanted to know from those that have gone through a divorce, what they think are some of the leading causes of divorce. What are some of the signs to look for that a marriage is on the brink?

Personality incompatibilities - but in a MUCH deeper sense than "I'm a lark and he's an owl" or "I like rap and he likes C&W". Everything else could be dealt with.

I think that too many people get married purely for a wedding. They don't think past the dress, party, presents. It is not just a wedding, it is a lifelong commitment. They should make you take a course before you can get married! lol

The initial cause of a divorce is that someone has filed for a divorce.

I voted for growing apart ( over 17 years )

But I think today's modern minded and less tolerant woman has alot to do with it. Plus the government's support ( in some counties ) for single parents.

I feel its partly some mens fault who are unable to adapt or accept modern day women , that they have views and goals .

I don't feel its fair that a man rules or governs 'over' a woman in a relationship . It is a partnership , after all , that would suggest to me an eqaul split dunno

I agree it should be a 50/50 partnership, there should be no domination by either party. Women just don't need men as much as it seemed in the past.

selfishness, that is the leading cause of divorce,

selfishness is what causes someone to cheat, They only care about there own satisfaction and have no concern for the feelings of there partner.

selfishness is what causes someone to creat dept as the care only about what they want right now and dont think about the consiquences for themself or there partner.

Selfishness is what causes a person to try and force there opinion on there partner without listining to the others thoughts and feelings.

selfishness is what causes someone to be violent and abusive every time they dont get there way.

Selfishness is the root of all that goes wrong in a marrage, in a socioety, and in humanity all around.

That is what I think
