Don’t Stress, Your Divorce Doesn’t Mean Failure

September 04, 2023

Marriage typically begins with the intent of lasting a lifetime, and the decision to pursue a divorce is far from a casual one. It is often a difficult choice, arrived at only after earnest efforts to resolve differences have proven futile. For many couples, divorce is a measure of last resort.

This led us to contemplate the prevalence of divorce as a life experience. If you and your spouse have reached the conclusion that divorce is the most suitable path for all parties involved, including both of you and your children, please be aware that we stand by your decision, recognizing that it may have been a challenging one to make.

Surprising Divorce Statistics

You’re likely aware that divorce impacts around 40 to 50 percent of all marriages in the United States. However, we’d like to share some intriguing and reassuring statistics.

Do you know that one in three individuals contemplating divorce have seriously considered it for at least two years? Recent studies also reveal that one in six people contemplated divorce for a year or more before proceeding.

Research debunks the notion that divorce is often a hasty decision, showing that those contemplating it typically take a considerable amount of time before making their final choice.

Common Factors Leading to Marriage Breakup

Clearly, the reasons behind a couple’s decision to end their marriage vary widely. Common factors include domestic violence, unpreparedness, or youth at the time of marriage, unrealistic expectations, frequent arguments, and a lack of equality or commitment. However, the most frequently cited reason for divorce is the absence of love between the partners.

Marriage is typically seen as a journey of personal growth and development, where perspectives change due to factors like parenthood, traumatic events, and life experiences. This can be particularly challenging for younger couples, as they may discover that their partner’s goals and views no longer align with their evolving ones.

This scenario is familiar to many of our clients. They don’t take the decision to divorce lightly, often seeking counseling and trying everything possible to salvage their marriage before arriving at the difficult choice to end it.

Reducing Stress Amid Divorce

Couples often fall in love, get married, and, for the well-being of both themselves and their children, sometimes decide to part ways. Therefore, you should not carry any guilt if you’ve determined that divorce is the best path for you and your family. You’ve earned the right to pursue the life you’ve envisioned for yourself.
