Re:Divorce in the rich world is getting less nasty by lazide on Saturday January 22, 2022 @10:26AM (#30037471)
What happens when your life partner is screaming at you and stabbing the counter with a butcher knife because you dared to ask how she was doing?

Because that’s one of many instances that led to me getting a divorce.

I took the vow quite seriously, but treating it like a suicide pact is not a good move either.

Extremely tragic. I do not want to diminish your situation at all. The difference is that so many of the dozens and dozens of divorces I’m personally connected to had no tragedy such as yours and the people involved were not going into marriage prepared for the road ahead (something they could have enjoyed if they’d been in a more supportive community that taught them more). So many I know end the marriage for far less difficult situations than yours.
