When is it time to give up? What reasons do you see fit enough for divorce?

If my husband physically abused me or my children, I would leave but I would not divorce him. As a Christian, the only justification given in the Bible for a divorce is adultery. I might, if my husband seemed remorseful and willing to try to make things right, continue the marriage, but if the unfaithfulness continued, it would be grounds for a divorce.

I agree fully, but what happens when there is nothing left? When all of the relationship has dried up?

I think when one partnererefuses to try any more, its timeto call it quits. I left my husband, not after he started dating other women, but when he moved his girlfriend in across the hall from our children, and expected meto be civil to her.

I can understand that. When the attempt is gone, what's left? Thanks.

The only reasons I can see myself getting divorced from my husband would be if he cheated on me, or in any way harmed me or our future child. But I suppose that in some relationships people grow apart and begin to desire someone/something else different than what they have. I think that staying in a relationship that either of you don't want to be in would be just making the matter worse. Negativity would begin to foster and things would just get worse.
