There are times in a marriage when the road becomes bumpy. Relationship advice, marriage counseling, and sometimes just talking will help. The worst is avoided, both spouses realize, “Hey, we do love one another! Let’s just tough this out.”

What if that does not happen? There are little things that chip away at a marriage. Then there are the huge disasters that can crack apart even the tightest cemented couple. Maybe a combination of both. Anger, resentment, finances, and more.

I am not talking about infidelity or violence. Those are for another post one day. Right now I am concerned with the stress of day to day living, with the added ‘crisis’ issues that can tear apart an otherwise happy marriage.

What if you realize one day that you are completely fed up with your spouse? Their annoying habits, phrases, and find that you have no idea who they are anymore. Maybe the fights begin or grow worse. Cutting remarks, sarcasm, withholding of sex, or just a loss of interest in intimacy at all.

I am wondering if there is a way to move past this, other than divorce. Readers, have you thought of divorce? Are you currently involved in divorce proceedings? If so, please share your stories in the comments.

If you or someone you know is thinking of a divorce, here is a page that has links to the divorce laws by state in the USA. I will post by country as soon as I locate all divorce laws that I can.
