 I think that if all the couple does is argue and basically hate each other than it is better for them to separate. My mom and dad got a divorce before i was in pre-K and got back together when i was in third or fourth. Now all they do is fight and argue and my mom's always crying and my dad's always mad and it's not a fun place to live. My siblings and i are messed up because of it. All we do is fight and argue because that what we heard while growing up. We all agree that the best time in our lives were when they were separated. It's just better that way.

 Well it depends on the situation/ but if is only problems and more problems all the time yes separate/you do not want to resort to physical violence and hurt each other in a way that one of you would have to go to jail//its better a peaceful separation and who knows maybe later you might consider each other to give it a second chance

 It is establishing a relationship in which the independence is equal,
dependence is mutual and the obligation is reciprocal.
It is not only marrying the right partner,
it is being the right partner.

 We each are responsible for our own happiness. If a husband and wife can no longer connect on an emotional level, its time to part ways.

 Yes the husband and wife should part there ways because if in the relationship we don't have understanding so what's the benefit of being together.the life cannot run properly if they dont have mutual understanding,.

 If you can't fix your problems, end it. I think its best for everyone involved. No reason being unhappy for the rest of your life. The God I serve would want me to be happy and move on. He would rather us have a chance of finding love with someone else, than live with someone we don't and be miserable. He understands that humans make mistakes and does not punish folks for them.

 I think that all problems should be talked about and worked out but if all else fails it is better to part ways than to hate each other later

 A successful marriage takes work. The current trend in the US is to give up without trying, but, if after all is said and done, the couple can't reconicle, it's time to part ways.

Marriage may be a sacred covenant, but it's not meant to be a punishment. 'Til death... Sure, but a miserable marriage can speed up that death. To tell a couple to hang in there is like telling a clinically depressed person to just shake it off. It won't work! And there isn't ALWAYS a way to work it out.

Staying together because of the children is just a heavy-handed way to make the couple feel guilt. Children don't benefit from growing up in a loveless, hostile atmosphere. I remeber the fights between my parents more than anything else. I started spending my summers away from home. I went to college away from home, and I couldn't wait until I could move out.

My parents did stay married for 57 years, but I received little affection from them. I didn't care when they moved out of state, and since my mother died four years ago, I don't speak to my father. Staying for the sake of the kids is baloney.

Everybody deserves some happiness in life. Marriage shouldn't be hostile. If it just can't work, you have to let go.

 Part it. There is nothing like having your sanity, peace of mind and keeping your self-esteem. You don't have to take it. Vows don't stipulate being humuliated. If there is no way things can be worked out through counseling of some sort or just between the two of you without other family members budding in, then do what you feel will make you a better person.

 In a long term relationship that has become negitive, it will most likely get worse before it gets better. Timely apart help you to reevaluate what you need and desire from each other.

 When you make a lifetime committment it should be for life. If a marriage is breaking down you dont abandon ship. You work to get through it. If you need a break from eachother then take one, but keep to your vows. Many broken marriages result in displaced children and bitterness. So when entering marriage you should be sure.

 Yes,it does more damage on all who are involved. It's not good for the children seeing two people fight for stupid reasons. And it's not good for you hiding yourself because you don't want to hurt someones feelings and its tearing you apart inside

 I think it is not healthy to stay with someone you are not happy with because wife and husband deserve to be happy.

But I can see how it is hard for a married couple with children to be likely to stay together if not to give theire marridge a shot then for the children.

Sometimes if you stay with someone you arent happy with if you give it enough time then you can resolve issues.

And sometimes they will part with out giving it a try.

It's a very hard decision to make depending on all circumstances.

 Yes, part ways its never good for anyone to stay in a relationship that they are not happy in .life is short as it is and you should live it to the fullest and of course being happy!

 Yes. You should try marriage counseling. If that dont work split ways. Why stay with someone you are not compatiable with.

 Never! That is not what you signed up for when you got married. Unless the relationship is violent. Life isn't easy whether you are married or single. Tough times will come. You just have to stick together until they pass.

 Is the issue is completely her mistake? If not then don't go for divorce at once. Even if its her mistake try to facilitate her a bit-you love her(that's what your asking question here shows).but, if you have done everything to facilitate her in your limits then it is her choice.
But if not then go till the last limit. Carefully evaluate everything before divorcing especially if your relationship is shared by kids.
Let her live with her parents for a month or two & only then try to resolve the matter cuz till that time anger on both sides must have lowered down(i don't know about your country but in indo-pak-bangladesh & many other countries, this tip works very much).
Wish you best luck.

 Marriage is a covenant with God and cannot be broken by signing a piece of paper. This is why we must be sure of what we are getting into. Whoever said we "deserved" to be happy? Things get tough and not what you expected, then the couple bails out because all we want is "to be happy"? Well, robbing a bank and lying and cheating make you happy for the moment, but that doesn't mean it's okay. Neither is divorce. It is ALWAYS possible to work things out. If it's an abusive relationship, then you have a right to physically leave. But removing yourself from danger and divorcing your spouse are two different things. For better or for worse, the two are one flesh and cannot be made two again.

 Marriage is a commitment. Something that was made as a solemn vow. We are only as good as our word. Society today makes it to easy to just walk away from it all.. Which is why people enter into it to lightly. Any commitment takes work. Its never easy but if we are people who hold our word as sacred than we have to do everything in our power to fix it. Counceling.. Marriage sessions.. Talking to a spiritual leader if you are of a faith. Unless it is violent to either party than I believe there should be a valiant effort to work it out.
Peace

 Not if one of the parties wants to work it out,marriage is tough its always up and down its adapting to the ups and downs that makes a marriage work,but if its a real bad scenario i think you should seek counseling or try to work things out before ending a bond that is suppose to be sacred

 If the relationship between husband and wife is not good look for the reason. Be willing to both expos your inner thoughts to each other and try to find a solution. Marriage isn't just a casual thing. Life ain't perfect and neither is any human. I am all for co-dependency by each spouse. Focus on the needs and desires of the other person.

 I think marriage is big decision so we thinking about it a lot so itis very difficult thing to broke the promises of marriage to stay together forever and will be very harmful if there children in this family the parents in this situation must think about the children more than themselves

 Marriages are made in heaven at last, and so we have no right to break it, especially when it is for simple things!there are many ups and downs in life doesn't mean you give up, it is a very bad choice to get divorced, a piece of paper can't put you into a happy side, so what ever is the problem just work it out, never lose hope, try to talk to each other, and solve it,if not ready to talk then give some time, your husband/ wife will always be yours.give your best and try to maintain it till the end of your life,but adjustment and understanding is must from your both side, because two brains cant have one thought.so don't worry everything will be fine.

 Try to talk to her first, if it is not working, involve elders from both of your sides.
If that also not works, then you can think of parting

 A relationship is between two individuals that may have a lot in common but because of individuality will not always have the same views. This can bring rocky times but if we are adult enough to get married then we should be adult enough to withstand the rocky times. The exception is of course abuse, in this case part ways.

 Marriages are made not to be broken. Both from your side and wife's side should come together and sort out the difference.

Parting ways doesn't make any sense

 If you are married, you are better off trying to work things out. Too many people are getting divorced over simple things these days. However if it is something that you can't work out it is better to separate than be miserable because the fighting can always escalate and that is never a good thing.

 2 wrongs don't' make a right. If you both have given up, then the devil has won and you both are the ultimate biggest losers!

Marriage is tough work! You must put on your hard hat every day and dig in to see what good things you can bring out of it. The devil works even harder to break marriages up because he knows God's power is within the covenant of a marriage between a man and a woman.

A marriage is the basic foundation of order for human beings. Order brings discipline, stability, a sense of well being, happiness, and a sense of respect for others.

The devil wants to break that order that God has empowered between the both of you.

If you start acting and believing in faith that the problem is fixed, eventually your husband is going to start believing your point of view too. That is God's promise to you. God is love and He wants you to be happy.

It won't happen overnight, but keep at it.

Pray, and believe in God's promise to you for happiness in your marriage and it shall be fulfilled.

 You need to take the parents out of the pic. They should not be involved in your marriage to began with. An ego problem usually steams from low self esteem. Try to boost each others self esteem . Taking the advice of parents over partners will lower the self esteem factor. A marriage is between man and wife- not anyone else

 I think if they loved each other enough to get married,they should at least be mature enough to try and work it out before just throwing in the towel.Ecspecially if they are children involved.If they really want to be together,regardless of their issues,they can make it work.

 If there are children involved then they should make every possible effort to keep the family unit together.
It is my personal belief that once a child enters the picture, that the wants & wishes of the parents take 2nd place. The welfare of the child should be thier paramount issue.

 Marriage means love and responsibility, it's unwise for them to part away without effort. Why not try to solve the problems between husbands and wives first? It's hard to manage the marriage, but it doesn't mean you should divorce without care! Marriage is not a game after all!

 No, there is always a way to work it out. There should be no reason to leave someone unless they are being extremely abusive. There was a reason two people got together in the first place, that just needs to be found again.

 If they don't have children yes it's better to separate.
If they have kids you must think about them first, talk to your couple, make and effort and, if it's possible, fix all the problems you could have.

 I have been married for 32 years. Got married at age 19, we have 3 adult kids and a grad-daughter. It is a rocky road. You have ups and downs alot of times. I learned from my parents that you try youre hardest, to never go to bed mad, and the first time you might want to leave for a bit. Will only make it easier to cont. To do this. The only time I am for it is abuse!!!!!!!
