The only two acceptable reasons.
Infidelity and abuse are the only valid reasons to divorce. There is nothing else.
Marriage is an important issue to me because I believe that marriage is the bedrock of the family, and the family is what keeps society together.
I have been in a lot of mom groups in person and online where women get on and say something like this. “He’s a good guy and cares about me and the kids. I’m just not in love with him anymore. How do I proceed with divorce?”
What do marriage vows mean to women?They do understand that if you only promise to be with someone as long as you’re having a good time and everything’s easy that that’s not much of a promise, and certainly isn’t a marriage vow. If you only stay for the good stuff then your wedding was meaningless and it was just as I suspect. Most of these ridiculous weddings are an overpriced party and a chance for women to try to be the center of attention for the day. It’s obviously not about pledging love and commitment because the minute the going gets rough they’re out the door. Somehow, their happiness is more important than keeping a promise that they made to someone else. What it really comes down to is incredible selfishness.
God promises us salvation, but he does not promise us an easy life. Sometimes, your spouse may let you down. Or they could get sick. Or not help out. None of these make it okay to divorce. You have to fight for your marriage to make it the best it can be. Sometimes, people go through dry spells. The romance fades away. The excitement dims. But it is your job to build those things up again. It can be done.
And to be honest, if all else fails and you really can’t get your marriage to improve, you should still stay in it. It’s not about your happiness. It’s about the family unit and keeping your promises. You made a commitment before God and your family and friends. We need to get rid of no fault divorce and start shaming people (usually it’s women) who divorce selfishly.
