Divorce is Not an Option – Why Thinking This Way Could Absolutely Save Your Marriage
Posted by: marriage_advisorWe live in a society where it is absolutely acceptable (and sometimes even encouraged) to get a divorce. Outside influences like our friends, lawyers, family members, and divorcing celebrities (who get more attention when they split up then when they marry) can all influence our opinions about ending our marriage. The problem with this is that the only person who is going to be affected by your divorce is you, your spouse, and your children (if you have them.) The friends and the well meaning folks who encouraged the divorce are likely not going to be standing with you when you pick up the pieces of your broken marriage. Admittedly, there are some cases (mental and physical abuse) where a divorce is actually a better option. But, in cases where couples have problems communicating, are fighting / misunderstanding one another regularly, or one partner has made a mistake that they are willing to rectify, then I believe, and it is my experience, that taking divorce off the table as an option can greatly help in saving the marriage. I’ll explain why in this article.
