35 Times People Knew Their Marriages Were Over

You meet someone, you fall in love, and you get married. That is what the media, greeting card companies, and for some people, their parents tell, us we should be doing. When a couple says their wedding vows, they promise to be together until “Death do us part.” However, that is simply not the reality for about 50 percent of married couples. People fall out of love, and divorce happens. These people decided to share their stories about falling out of love with their partners.

Cutting Family Ties

One married couple had decided to have a child, as many couples do. Once their son had been born and was toddling about the family home, the wife decided that they needed to spend more time together as a family.

She asked her husband if he could try and take some time out of his work schedule on a Saturday for some family time in the park. Her husband looked at her point-blank and simply said their son was a financial burden.

A Difference Of Opinion

It’s natural for couples to have different views on certain topics, but when it comes to love, you need to be on the same page. In order to love your partner, and provide them with the love they need, you need to understand what their love language is.

This couple had completely opposite views on what it means to love a person, and because of these views the marriage was over. The wife knew that neither she, nor her husband would be willing to change. Due to that, she decided to call it quits, and find someone who could give her the love that she needs.

A Last Ditch Effort

If you don’t have children or health issues that prevent you from working, it tends to be expected that both partners in a marriage will work. This woman had worked full-time for ten years to support her husband and herself, while he had barely contributed.

They both knew the marriage was failing, so her husband suggested that a baby could save their relationship. She knew that her husband would still refuse to work, and she did not want to have to continue supporting him.

Family Planning

Parenting is tough, everyone knows this. One dad worked part-time and was expected to get his twin boys sorted out for preschool. His wife was more than happy for him to go and enroll them, and choose a good school.

However, when their first day rolled around, she realized that he had lied about everything school-related. The children had no school to go to, and her husband didn’t care about it. She decided to kick him out of the house and end things. All he wanted from their marriage was his Playstation.
