Common Reasons Why Couples Get Divorced

On Behalf of | Sep 8, 2020 | Divorce, Family Law, Firm News

Those who get married often do so with the hope and expectation that the relationship will stand the test of time. Unfortunately, for many, this is not possible. While not every problem in a marriage leads to divorce, however, some are more frequently connected to divorce than others. Continue reading to learn more about the most common reasons why spouses call it quits.

Why Spouses Get Divorced

Not every marriage will last. Although spouses may get divorced for any number of reasons, some are more common than others.

Below are some of the most common reasons why marriages end in divorce:

  • Extramarital affairs: When a spouse cheats, it is not only heartbreaking, but it can also irreparably damage trust. As much as some couples may try to move past an extramarital affair, if trust cannot be rebuilt, the marriage may ultimately fail.
  • Financial difficulties: Money problems are another common marriage killer. If spouses have vastly different spending or saving habits, for example, the relationship may feel like a constant battle that cannot be won.
  • Substance abuse: Addiction is a tough matter for families and married couples to weather. Not only can the chaos of having a spouse with substance abuse problems emotionally drain a partner, but it can also erode trust. If it cannot be repaired, the marriage may inevitably come to an end.
  • Incompatibility: No matter how compatible a couple was when they said, “I do,” it is still possible to grow apart. People rarely stay the same and the changes some may go through over the years can end up pulling a marriage apart.

If you can no longer make your marriage work, do not hold off on consulting with an attorney.
