I think Person1 has a point. All these posts from several posters about how abuse is not abuse if it’s not physical and how people should stay in bad marriages, etc, can be kind of dangerous.

I met someone who told me that before she got divorced she was very judgmental of people who got divorced. It is very easy to be judgmental of people who get divorced. You don’t know the situation, and you don’t know their cheshbonos – cut them some slack.

Of course, no one should get divorced too easily, and most people don’t. Perhaps, there are people who don’t know how to get the help they need, so point them in the right direction – but, please stop with all the judgmental speeches about what other people should be able to deal with, etc. I think it does more harm than good,imho.
