Depends on the situation. I do think people give up too easy these days. We live in a world where we get everything almost instantly, and people don't want to work at things anymore. The second a relationship goes bad, they are on the computer looking for someone new.
-
Not if they have tried hard to make things work. I do not believe in easy divorce but I also do not believe in people living a life of misery
-
Not necessarily.Sometimes it's the best thing to do.
-
depends on their reason for divorcing.
-
no...not under any circumstance would i consider someone a quitter just for getting a divorce. no matter what i know about the situation, chances are i don't know the whole story.
-
No. Espeically if one of them cheated on the other.
-
No, especially if that's their last hope for a stress-free life.
-
Not if they've tried everything they possibly can to make the marriage work. It takes both partners to do this and sometimes one of them doesn't want to try and it's unhealthy for the unhappy person to stay and be miserable all the time. I don't believe in bailing at the first sign of problems but I think there does come a time when the marriage is irreparable. Then it's time.
-
no..because there are some people that are impossible to get along with once the love fades..
-
No, sometimes a divorce is the right thing to do.
-
No, especially not after I've gone through one, because for me, it was either quit, or go to jail for killing my wife (kidding) lol. I took the mature way out lol.
-
I use to feel that way until my husband left for another woman. I tried to make things work...asked for counselling, etc but he was ready to leave. So I do think he was a quitter. I'm in the process of seperating because my current husband refuses to be happy in life, give me a say on things and be a father/husband. I do feel like a quitter sometimes.
-
Only if that is the reason they divorced, otherwise; of course not. :)
-
No. If the marriage is broken to the point all suffer, you'd be fool not to.
-
No. Some things in life have got a sell-by date, and for many couples, marriage is one of them.
-
I would consider them a lieras much as a quitter since they vowed in better or for worse.. but you know.. some people just feel like doing whatever >.>
-
Well I got an annulment once (its pretty similiar to a divorce) and it was not because I quit. Its because my wife left me for her lover and asked me for a divorce. I saw annulment as a cheaper and quicker method. My parents divorced because their marriage had crumbled to a point restoration was no longer possible.
-
no. I filed for the divorce but only out of obligation to my sons and my own well being. I tollerated financial, emotional and borderline physical abuse. she was dead weight and neglectful. (I was lucky if I got lucky 2 months in a row) even when she was home my inadequate income had to go to daycare because she was "too sick" to take care of him... there were times she would use that excuse to leave him in my care when I should have been sleeping in preparation for work so she could go "rest" in the other room but instead of resting she was cybering. I even tried getting her to come home for 6 weeks after she ran away with BF#3. at some point you have to give up.
-
Depends. Have they genuinely put the effort in to make things work? Is their partner willing to also put work into repairing the relationship? If abuse of any kind is an issue, then absolutely not. I think marriage is often entered into without enough thought put into the potential of its success. Still, no one should stay in a situation that holds no possibility for happiness.
-
Not at all. Who am I to judge someone for something that could happen to me.
-
Not at all. No more than I would call someone who escaped from a kidnapper a quitter. You gotta do what you gotta do.
-
Its not quitting its starting over to do better.
-
Absolutely. First they quit childhood, then they quit adolescence, then they quit singlehood, then they quit marriage, eventually they quit life itself! What the hell is wrong with these people who have no damn commitment??
-
not at all.I believe it is being realistic, bowing to the inevitable and moving on.If its dead, its dead.
-
Depends on the situation, some people think that everything will be roses and unicorns. And they dont put the work into it. But some people keep beating their dead horse until they are both miserable. It kind of depends..
-
No, sometimes in life things just don't work out, no matter how hard you try and how much effort you put into a relationship. Why torment yourself? Life's too short.
-
well if the partner is a bad person i say no go for it you be dumb not to, but if not then yes cause there is nothing that cant be worked out (time is life) +5
-
I would if they wanted a divorce over trivial reasons. There are reasons for divorce and they include: Abuse (physical or mental) Adultery
-
depends on the situation and the people involved. If they tried to fix their problems or just gave up
-
No, you're just incompatible
-
Certainly not! Divorce is a viable attempt most times to get the reamainder of your life back on track, romantically and otherwise. So many people remain in loveless marriages and I'm convinced it's a huge mistake.
-
not at all , in the end its matter of understading and gettin comfortable with other.
