NOT paying attention to what IS, as opposed to what one WANTS or wishes their loved one to be, BEFORE taking the leap. Many THINK (or WANT) they are marrying for love; they look at marriage in an idealistic sense, or think they can change a person after marriage.  |

The single biggest reason that I can think of is not getting to know your partner before you tie the knot. The other thing that goes hand in hand with knowing someone is realizing that you're not going to get them to change. So you not only have to love the person that you're going to marry but you really really need to like them.  |

My husband and I had many lengthy talks before we were married about what we wanted in life, how we wanted to live, and what we expected from a spouse. I was LIED to!!! I think that he just agreed with me on everything I said. And of course, that made a disasterous marriage. Now six long years have gone by and here we are getting ready to get a divorce. If you were to follow my husband around for a day, you would never know that he even had a family, muchless a wife. He is a very very self-envolved and self-centered person.  |

Finances, when money runs out so does the love..more often than not. For me it was being to young, and foolish.  |

i think alot of it is boredom, after years of marriage we sometimes take our spouses for granted and think that we will be married for life without thinking about keeping communication and the spice in a relationship so we get bored..well just a thought. ::HUGS::  |

Sometimes people are just not right for each other, simple as that. We just don't always know it, we change as we grow older. Feelings change with life changes, and people do not always stay the same.  |

too many people look at divorce as an easy out of thier problems... not dealing with the issues head on.... lack of communication. lack of knowing the person you are marrying...expecting your partner to change.... expecting everything to stay the same as it was when dating.... those seem to be some of the most common(other the finacial)  |

I agree with Midnightly, I also believe that incompatibility has a lot to do with divorces today , lack of total commitment, A lot of people get scared when there is sickness or the money runs out. Fidelity is another major marriage breaker as well as alcoholism & abuse.. T/C *Kentucky Bluebird*  |
