A good marriage is one that lasts. Where’s divorce in the formula of a good marriage? Merriam Webster defines marriage as the legal relationship into which a man and a woman enter with the purpose of making a home and raising a family. With just its definition, marriage is not a simple thing to get into. (23) It calls for a lot of hard work and effort to survive the stress of marital issues like finances, children, household chores, and more.
   Divorce offers a grand exit away from quarrelling and fights, from hurt and from other problems that marriage brings. On the other hand, it’s also the bus that will take you away from those long and worthwhile conversations with your spouse, from the love and security your marriage offers. It’s also the sign that the once brave person who got married is no longer as brave and actually became a coward that takes the easy way out. If you have been brave once, be even braver and stand up for your marriage. Remember that considering divorce is not a key to a good marriage.
    (24)Compromise plays an important role to keep couples together and have a good marriage. Compromise means arriving to an agreement after a dispute because each or both partners have given up their demands and arguments. (24)With constant compromises, marital issues can be settled without even putting divorce in the picture.
   When someone feels the hurt is already too much, ending the relationship or marriage is a seemingly good option. But have you tried to forgive your spouse before you even thought of giving up on your marriage? Forgetting previous conflicts is hard to do since it leaves a mark in your memory. But dwelling on those negative emotions has a very destructive effect on you, your partner, and your marriage.
    (25)Consider trial separation rather than divorce. Some time to cool down is perhaps what you need. If you and your partner just can’t stop fighting over almost everything, rest. Give each other a chance to rediscover buried feelings of love, respect, and trust. It is also a great time to remember your good times together as a couple. It also might help you find ways on how to get those times back.
