well, in marriage there is always the word "COMMITTMENT" that's why we should be ready to commit and re-commit ourselves to our partner. if you're not ready, then don't do anything that would cause u to commit unwillingly.

I believe that one should try to work at the relationship instead of just ending it the first time there is a disagreement.

yes i agree with u. But we should work it out of love. because you love the person, we should be ready to ask for forgiveness and to forgive.

why not??? one way way to prove your committment is to let her feel that you are ready to give anything.

Isn't that why you get married in the first place! By signing a marriage license you are agreeing to be together for a lifetime. How ever! There are times when all else has failed that the license needs to be revoked. I think there should be a law that you can only get divorced 1 time and remarried 1 time after that. Three strikes shouldn't be the rule on this one.

marriage, love, for that matter, is a commitment, a vow.unless of course if there are really serious factors. especially when you got kids, it's all the more important to keep the marriage, and in keeping it, it doesn't have to be unpleasant, hard, or something that you only have to put up with. both parties should work hard to make it as wonderful as the beginning.

thanks for the added knowledge of commitment. Love never fails. Even serious factors should not and cannot change our commitment to our spouse. We shouls not think of ourselves ONLY. in other words, We should not be self-centered person.

If you are married...then YES!! What was the point of getting married in the first place if you do not plan on making a commitment? If you get married and things go wrong and cannot be fixed, then I can understand. But the way that you asked that question gives me an image of a couple getting married and then one day, POOF, it is over. Then what was the point? Ya know?!?!! Marriage is not just a relationship that you can leave because you don't want to be with that person anymore, it is a commitment saying that you will spend the rest of your life with them!!!

What the heck is a marriage for if it's not to spend a lifetime with someone? It's about an investment. Marriage is saying "Ok, I know we are going to continue to change and grow, but let's do that together, and pick a direction to go for both of us." If you are a Christian (like I am) a marriage is a vow taken before God to work together for your entire life to glorify him. Don't grieve the big man upstairs!
Plus, who is going to share your room at the retirement home if you get divorced?

Yes because marriage is a commitment between two people and we have to obey to it
