bit.ly There is some good advice out there about ways for couples to improve their relationship, stop a break up or divorce, or how to get that special person back in your life. If your relationship, or marriage, has reached a critical point it may be time to seek some of that advice, make some changes, and take some action. The majority of couples who break up, and the majority of marriages that get divorced, do so because they have lost that loving feeling for each other. And often this is based on misconceptions and misunderstandings. There are a lot of false beliefs out there concerning so called rules of relationships. These misconceptions leads to tension which builds up over time. One of the ways to ease tension in a relationship is to consciously recall the romantic and positive memories you have of your mate.

‘Fraud’
‘Irreconcilable differences’
Some of the major reasons cited for divorce in the Western World. Perhaps these marriages would have survived if any of the issues which caused the divorce were resolved before the couple got married. I say this because I’m a hug believer in the sanctity of marriage. I’m not particularly religious but having seen my parents been married for 30 years, I believe that people of our generation don’t take marriage seriously. I’m discouraged by the fact that around 50% of marriage ends in divorce. Why should I get married if there is a reasonable chance it will end in divorce? That’s why I think it might be a good idea for a couple to be evaluated as a match or receive guidance before they embark on a lifetime commitment together. So many marriages end because the couple realise they have different ideas about where they want to be in the future, or because they take the problems in their relationship before they tied the knot into their marriage. What do you think?
Elle, I understand what you mean but people I think marriages are ending because people are marrying for the wrong reasons. One thing I disagree with about the older generation is that people were marrying at really young ages; I don’t think you should marry until you’ve reached a certain level of maturity- I’m 24 and I know I’m nowhere near the level of maturity to make a commitment like marriage. People need to look at their relationships in a serious and pratical way and see if they really could stay with someone for 50+ years. Otherwise it just isn’t worth it.
I don’t disagree with divorce- sometimes it is just not working and it’s better if people part. But it’s getting ridiculous now- people are trading in their marriages now as often as they trade in a defective good at a computer shop!

Why do married couples so easily divorce? What do you think the grounds for divorce are? How much should we try before looking to divorce as an option?
I watched Couples Retreat the other night with a friend. It is a great movie. It’s about four couples, (but I have only really concentrated on one of them: J&C). Their relationships are all failing apart and Jason and Cynthia are thinking of getting a divorce. As they go through the ups and downs they realise that’s what a relationship is about, and no one is perfect. But can they save their marriage and their love in time? The couples go to Eden West a Holiday for Retreating Couples, where they’ll be counselled and taught to respect one another in order to help save their marriages/love, whilst they think it will he a holiday to have fun. The catch is, in order to have fun they need to learn to love and respect eachother. {Thanks For Reading}. Hope You Like It. Comments Appreciated. This is Fan Made, I own Nothing.
