Marriages don’t crumble in a day. Most times, it’s a slow descent into personal routines that keep getting in each other’s way. Eventually, with the loss of that initial spark (a nice gift from Hashem, but it won’t last)Both sides begin to make demands, feel unheard, and not try to repair things until it’s too late. Both sides contribute to the problem. Even in some cases of abuse (you can hate me for writing this, but as much as I don’t like it either, it’s the truth) it could have been prevented had the abused stood up for him/herself in the beginning. Obviously, each case is separate, and should be treated as such. In general, I view divorce as a tragedy on society’s part. And I cry for their children.
