Divorce...what a word!

One of my fellow bloggers asks the following questions: When is it ok to divorce someone? What is it; do you just start to grow tired of the other person? Is it right to make the other person continue on, when neither of you like each other, simply for the sake of your kid? To answer this question, we have to first understand the definition of divorce. DIVORCE! There are so many definitions when it comes to this word and it causes depression. The dictionary defines divorce as; “The termination of a marriage by court order; the state of having terminated a marriage. To terminate a marriage to someone by obtaining a court order, usually referred to as a divorce decree.” As you notice each definition uses the word “terminate”, which means to destroy. So, to answer you’re following question of when is it ok to divorce someone. I feel that it is never "ok" to divorce someone because marriage is supposed to be a life long commitment. Some people do not keep this commitment because of their disagreements, but then on the other hand we have marriage counselors today to help with marriage problems. I do think that it is possible that these people grow tired of each other, but also they find themselves attracted to others. It is totally normal to be attracted to someone that is not your spouse, but when people in marriages find themselves attracted to another person, rather than their spouse, this simply means that it is something that their spouse is not doing right. To be attracted to someone, is way more than what you see on the outside. Attraction, takes place, in inner beauty, personality, a person’s hearts, and if they agree with you to a certain point. Then, sometimes attraction takes place in the sexual apartment, because sometimes if a person isn’t sexually attracted to their spouse, it can build a wall between them and make their relationship further apart.
In marriages you should always communicate and be honest with one another. A person should never hold things to themselves or lead a person on in the wrong way. So, it is not right to continue on in marriage if you find yourself not liking the opposite person, but you should find away to get along for your child’s sake.
