Question
Marriage - Would you get a divorce? What would be your reasons for getting a divorce? Would you get married again? Why? How many times would you get married?

Marriage is supposed to be for better and for worse, but the worse does not include every kind of pain. To me, marriage is a commitment built on love, respect, understanding, and safety. It is meant to be a place of peace, not fear or constant struggle. Even though divorce is not supposed to be part of the picture when people get married, life is not always perfect. Where there is good, there is also bad, and opposites exist in every reality. This is why some marriages face challenges that become too heavy to carry.
Divorce happens mostly because of friction between two people. Sometimes the reasons are very minor, like poor communication or misunderstanding. Other times, the reasons are deep, serious, and complicated, and they slowly destroy the bond that once existed. I personally do not wish divorce on myself because it is often devastating and very stigmatizing in this part of the world. People judge, talk, and sometimes blame without knowing the full story.
However, being realistic, there are situations where I would consider divorce. Domestic violence is one of them, because no one deserves to live in fear or pain. Cheating is another strong reason, especially when there is no remorse or effort to change. I also believe constant family feud, whether direct or indirect, that affects my union with my partner can push a marriage to breaking point.
If divorce ever happens, I would still be open to marriage again. I believe love can be found more than once, and life deserves a second chance with the right person. I would only get married again if I find someone truly deserving, compatible, and ready to walk life’s journey with me. I would not remarry more than once, because marriage is not something I would take lightly and staying committed matters deeply to me always.
