  • Unexpressed expectations.
  • Men and women.
  • Cheating and Financial problems
  • Not knowing what being married really involves.
  • no trust
  • lack of trust/commitment
  • Lack of commitment, honor, and integrity, essentially. And a misplaced belief that marriage is a "happily ever after" institution instead of something that requires a great deal of work. Most people, and not just young people, have no concept of what they are entering into when they get married. Go to my profile and look under "RELATIONSHIPS" if you want to know more.
  • for my parents, it was a lack of trust, communication and financial problems that just escalated unchecked.
  • Marriage
  • Women. Women who are selfish, and expect men to spend every waking moment lavishing attention on them. And when they dont get that attention, they automatically assume there is no love. Most divorce are womens fault.
  • money problems dishonesty health infidelity emotional emptiness those are the reasons my marrage is ending.... only the last one came from my end.
  • drugs,alcohol and adultery.these are what most of my friends did to get DIEvorced
  • they get into a rut.. they "change" (out grow each other) or never really loved one another, many reason.. the biggest is they out grow one another to the point they start taking each other for granite..then one will cheat and the rest is history
  • Unrealistic expectations and disappointment with reality.
  • I saw a poll once that said Money was the main cause (some very high percentage) of divorce
  • The number one cause of Divorce is Marriage. No seriously - it's poor communications and an unwillingness to compromise.
  • Cheating No communication dishonesty Ego's
  • dishonesty, abuse, cheating, and no respect.
  • M O N E y number one killer of happiness. Lack of it on both sides or only on one side.
  • I was going to suggest money but when I considered how many divorced people I knew about I rethought my answer. How many celebrities get married, divorce, remarried, redivorced... and money is not an issue with them. or is it still? I think communication is key. selfishness compounded with an inability to convey true feelings. A lack of compromise brought on by misinformation or assumptions caused by again, lack of communication.
  • lack of morals
  • 85% of divorces are initiated by the woman, so I would say the main problem that causes divorce, is the fact the women are quitters.
  • selfishness , lack of trust , money, the mistress, someone falls out of love, no sex, grew apart, and boredom.
  • Selfishness. I hate how so many parents fight and then divorce each other and expect their children to get along with each other. I also HATE HATE HATE when parents use their children as tools against the other parent in an attempt to make the other parent feel like CRAP. Real mature there. It's SO STUPID. Way to set a 'good' example...Not. They say divorce shows the child you respect yourself enough to leave...to me it doesn't show that at all because I see divorced people talking down their "ex"wives and husbands so much. It actually completely DISGUSTS me. As for the people who got along with people who have been married and still get along with the person they are "no longer married to", I don't get why they even got a divorce in the first place. I HATE DIVORCE. Always. I don't care if you think your case is the exception. That's final. To me, it's just a childish stupid blame game. "Oh, my ex-husband is such an asshole! I'm so glad he's out of my life! He treated me like shit!" (And how are you NOT treating HIM like shit?) "Oh, my ex-wife..she was such a bitch! She nagged all the time and didn't do anything right anyway.." (Yeah...real mature there...) You ever notice how so many of these people blame their "EX" for their problems instead of taking responsibility for their OWN actions? I really feel for the divorced people who never wanted a divorce (along with the children if there are any) more than anyone else in the entire situation. I can understand if a spouse who is abused walks away from a marriage, so I can sympathize with that as well. I can also understand someone who was cheated on who gave their spouses everything they asked for walking away. It's just all the other people who make up problems that never existed who really piss me off. They are the ones who give divorce a bad name. (This answer isn't necessarily directed at you).
