snowy84 Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 as liberal as i may be, i would not consent to divorce. heck marriage is a big deal. make sure youre ready to commit to your partner. simple. besides you can always just go about playing the field to find that mate with that mutual desire to get married. its a tad sad that a lot of couples nowadays simply shrug of the sanctity of marriage for convenience. true, all couples will fight. all couples will reach that tipping point of giving up. but the point of marriage for me is to go beyond oneself. heck when a couple gets married, its not just between them, its among the couple and God. if the couple cant find the strength to hold on, then hey just take a gander at the Big Man. He's all you need. Quote Link to comment
complicated8 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 in a world of billions of people even a country with 80 million people, do you think finding the one meant for you will be easy? There are more mistakes than right choices.... Reality check, people. Being a religious country hasn't helped the phils economically, politically, crimewise, etc. if God had the key to everything, then this world would be a utopia. Quote Link to comment

mwah Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) It's about time. Malta and the Philippines are the only remaining countries without a divorce law. Edited January 17, 2009 by mwah Quote Link to comment
Admirer40 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 For me, divorce is the last option.. if things cant really be fixed between a couple after going through counselling and talking their hearts out and wala pa din or somebody is not cooperating then pwedi na siguro.. the boat cant move smoothly if only one is rowing it and your partner does not even care.

lances Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 i somewhat don't agree in divorce, because he/she was given the chance to decide before settling down, so when things goes wrong, he/she should find ways to solve them. ...unless, the other person really wanted to divorce him/her.

formyeyesonly Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 i'm against divorce...there are lot of broken families d2 sa atin...e pag pinayagan nila ang divorce...ung iba magsasamantala na nyan...there will be plenty of reasons that can be fabricated para mahiwalayan na ung partner mo pag nagkataon na ma approve yan...why not solve kung ano man ung problems and para ma settle...di ung konting tampuhan e hiwalayan na agad...its not solving the problem but it's worsening the situation...

mwah Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Who says that it would be easy to get a divorce here once it's legalized? I'm pretty sure that there would be certain valid grounds before divorce could be granted. There should have been more prerequisites to getting married so couples would think and rethink.... and rethink over and over again. Quote Link to comment
spongebobby Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 divorce, if and when legalized here, will remain the refuge of the rich. many poor people don't bother with the legalities of marriage and separation: they have other priorities. Quote Link to comment
superl Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 i am for divorce...... too many illegitimate children of parents living together who are victims of unfortunate unions and have finally found the partners they want to be for the rest of their lives..... Quote Link to comment
Sheepshop Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 why do women like divorce a lot? I'm wondering. :hypocritesmiley: Quote Link to comment
peterparker Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 although marriage is sacred, and it`s a contract with the One up above.. we are but human, and no matter how much a married couple tries to make it work.. some are destined to fail.. and would be better off if they parted ways.. :mtc: Quote Link to comment
Chammy Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 ..there is no right or wrong marriage nor a perfect one.......uniqueness (as human beings) among us sometimes work for or against any relationship and you may not know it until your with the person for a looooong period of time, to make it more simple, you wouldnt know a person until you practically spend most of your time with the him/her, you wouldnt knw yet the extreme qualities that you dnt knw when your just dating and or just seeing on every planned dates..oh yeah, even if you have sex with the person many times outside marriage...so the question would be a big HOW? ..know the qualities you want (but again, there is no perfect person for your perfect requirement)..acceptance (not that simple tough)..constant respect..self control (can you avoid temptation???)..sincerity..endurance (people are also like equipments..subject to wear and tear)..and yes, the more important, to keep the feeling in-love with the person you choosed ..many will say its very idealistic, but hey..its the reality..if you cant follow the above then dont get married and add to those who wanted DIVORCE...if you get into it accept the realities of life and make that marriage work... Divorce can always be the last resort but why do we have to let things get into it while we can plan and or decide at the very begginning....just dont be impulsive, take time to make decision especially getting MARRIED....and follow the above...

complicated8 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 the problem is it's too easy to get married. If you believe in the religious sacrament of marriage, you shouldn't believe in divorce. But for those who think marriage is a legal binding thing that can be abolished by divorce. It should be allowed. Even though abortion is illegal, some still do it because it's a personal repercussion. But divorce involves lawyers, the law, and other people. Like someone said divorce ain't easy. Give the option to people who want it and not think that you know what's best for other people. If more than 90% of the world allows it, what makes us so special not to have it. It is allowed for those who marry foreigners cause divorce is legal in their country. Quote Link to comment
mightbeyou Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 :goatee: divorce has its own pros and cons...its always a case to case basis...one may want to ask for divorce because he or she just wants to get away with the responsibilities imposed in a relationship...while others may want to do so to get out of a crappy and not so healthy relationship...with respect to that, our justice system and our courts would have full authority to have a marriage dissolved or not, which of course would still be dependent on the strict compliance of the laws imposed...though on a personal note, i still dont believe in divorce...especially in our country where we give so much premium on the sanctity of marriage and family...i do think all problems could be resolved by talking things out...have conversation that provides for explanations...dont make divorce an excuse to be able to live a single life again...because at one point in time you were happy with your spouse...why cant you rekindle that feeling...that is if you are willing to do so...well, like i said, everything is dependent on the circumstances surrounding the situations involved... :goatee: Quote Link to comment
