  I would never understand why other people care so much about whos divorcing who like just because you&apos;re stuck in an unhappy marriage doesn&apos;t mean everyone else want to.

  If marriage is considered to be a partnership for 7 lifetimes in India, then divorce should be a religiously permitted option for those couples who are currently in their 8th lifetime together.

  I think divorce is better than domestic violence and making everyone in the family suffer. Indians feel proud that India has one of the lowest divorce rates in the world but they don&apos;t realise that many couples would have actually separated if there were no societal taboos.

  An unhappy family is a social evil, not divorce. Divorce is tool to resolve it.

  We are living in a truly f*cked up society. No education and extreme stigma when it comes to divorce, s*x, financial independence, mental health, and addressing abuses. But somehow it&apos;s completely normal in our society when married couples have extra marital affairs, shaming single moms/dads, shaming divorced individuals, not giving a child&apos;s custody to dad even if mom is mental, women shaming women for even talking about legal separation, dowry, misusing the law, etc.<br>I hope that the future generations evolve in a better way!

  Divorce is not the problem, divorce is a solution to the problem. No point being stuck in an unhappy and unfulfilling marriage if you have already given it everything to make it work, sometimes getting a divorce will be the right thing to do.

  My mom is a lecturer with a PhD. My dad is an officer in education department. I definitely feel my mom deserves better for not expecting anything from my dad even after 20 years of their marriage and taking great care of his family even when her own mother was on ventilator. She didn&apos;t hesitate a bit when she had to change my aunt&apos;s diapers who was fighting cancer. She never bought gold for herself or me. We never went on trips like any other family. We were not at all like a family. My father on the other hand wasn&apos;t someone we all saw. When my mom was pregnant with my elder brother, she was really depressed because of my father&apos;s behaviour. She was writing a death note after seeing which my dad said &quot;if you die after writing &apos;my&apos; name as the reason for your death, and if I&apos;m put behind the bars, who&apos;s gonna take care of my big brother&apos;s kids?&quot;<br>My mom literally filed divorce after this but due to pressure from our so called family and society,she had to take it back. Few months ago my parents had a big fight. Now they&apos;re not talking to each other. My mom told me to finish my 12th (I&apos;m in 12th now) and live in a hostel for my graduation because she&apos;ll be applying for transfer after their divorce next year. She even asked my big brother to stay in hostel (he&apos;s in 2nd year mbbs). Holding onto something hurts more than letting it go. Self respect must be the first thing to think about. I love both of my parents, but I respect my mother more than my dad.

  I hear people saying divorce is not good but yet it&apos;s better than living with a wrong partner

  I’m going through a divorce myself right now. Filing next month. It’s all so relatable. My mother is trying desperately to keep me in the unhappy marriage. I feel so cornered and isolated. <br>Thank you for discussing the issue.

  I don&apos;t give a f**k about what anybody says..but I really want my parents to get a divorce. Their toxic behaviour towards one another had a great impact on me and my sister and now we both fear marriages.
