The Top 5 Factors Leading to Divorce for Men
Ignoring Issues: Divorce for men can be an extremely taxing process, not just emotionally, but physically as well. Increase health issues such as cardiovascular disease have even been reported for men facing divorce, so avoiding this outcome is very important. Many married couples have a lot of issues covering a wide variety of topics. Whether you are in a marriage and have financial concerns or even just dislike the way your spouse breathes address the issues. Nothing can be solved if you wait for the problems to go away; they usually never do.
Undefined Roles: In a marriage, everyone needs responsibility. Living with another person is the ultimate test for married couples, so it is important to determine who is in charge of what and how your plans are going to be executed. Cleanliness, for example. Decide who will take the garbage out and who is going to clean the dishes. Even if the request of your spouse is to simply turn off the lights when you leave a room, try to do it. Respecting each others wishes is a great way to avoided the dreaded D.
Lack of Togetherness: With the stressors of everyday life, its easy to lose track of time and go to bed each night without spending enough time with your spouse. If this is the case for you, try and make an effort to change that. Whether its going to grab a bite to eat, catching a movie or shopping together avoid becoming disconnected and take time out of your days for each other.
Poor Communication: This is a huge one. As human beings, communication is our number one tool for getting things done and getting what we want. Without a proper grasp on communication in any relationship, things are sure to fail eventually. Communicating effectively is key. This means listening to each other, rather than interrupting and cutting each other off. While arguing is a normal part of any marriage, constant bickering and disrespect will not get you the results you are looking for.
Inadequate Relationship Building: While most people can enter into a marriage, it is not so easy to maintain the same spark, passion and commitment that was there when you were newlyweds. Relationships take work; this means listening to each other and taking the necessary time for fixing things that are broken. Ask questions, let your wife know you are thinking about her (even when she isn't around) and do everything you can to show you care. Marriage is work and will only be successful if both of you are putting in the necessary time and effort.’
