The Top 5 Reasons for Divorce

Every couple has ‘off’ days and every person can feel doubt in a relationship over time. But according to the American Psychological Association, 40-50% of marriages in the United States end in divorce. What issues influence this statistic?

Life can be unpredictable and no one can see the future. To take someone for ‘better or worse’ can look and feel different in one situation than it may in another, but these five common reasons for divorce for many couples:

1. Infidelity

Cheating on your spouse not only breaks a vow—it breaks the trust in a relationship. Cheating can be the result of a dying or failing relationship or it can simply result from a person’s own insecurities. Regardless, whether the issue is a one-night stand or something more long-term, cheating often results in divorce as many couples struggle to learn to trust each other enough to move beyond this trial.

2. Lack of Intimacy

Physical intimacy is important in any romantic relationship, but it is essential to the growth of a long-term relationship. Spending quality time together, investing in each other emotionally, and showing affection are all ways to show your spouse that you see them and care about their emotional well-being. When that intimacy stops, it sends a very different message.

3. Communication

Problems in communication can stem from a wide variety of other issues, but ultimately, couples who can’t find a way to connect with each other in order to communicate in a healthy way, often decide the relationship has run its course.

4. Money

“For richer, for poorer” sounds good in vows, but it can’t scrape the surface of financial problems American couples can find themselves facing today. There are many ways finances can cause problems in a relationship:

Disagreements overspending or saving habits

Issues with power dynamics due to different incomes

Financial instability

One spouse holding control of all finances

Battling addiction can be difficult and often, those struggling with addiction can end up hurting those closest to them. Couples can work through addiction, but it requires both parties to want and commit to seeking help. It’s common, no matter the reasons for divorce, for individuals considering divorce to feel depressed, vulnerable, and generally overwhelmed.

What does this face mean 🙃?

🙃 Upside-Down Face emoji It can indicate silliness, sarcasm, irony, passive aggression, or frustrated resignation.

dictionary.com - Upside-Down Face emoji Meaning - Dictionary.com

The upside-down face emoji can convey sarcasm, passive aggression, or irony. It’s the visual opposite of the ordinary smiley emoji, which might lend to the interpretation that the meaning of the text is the opposite of what it seems. Do you think they’ll notice if I left work 6 hours early today? 🙃 — Karla sandoval (@_Karlita6) October 23, 2018 This emoji can also be used to communicate a comical level of misfortune, showing the user is “smiling through the pain.” In some contexts, there’s almost a palpable undercurrent of ugh or “why me?” associated with it. This emoji is for when someone is frustrated with their circumstances, but has to muscle through it anyway. In some cases, it’s used even for an emotion that can only be described as “this is fine,” à la a certain oft-referenced comic of a dog sitting in a burning room with a smile on his face. Now I want to buy more albums but i have no money 🙃 pic.twitter.com/SxyD2AEUe4 — faye¹²⁷ [#TEMPO #NAMANANA] (@minseokty) October 23, 2018 Additionally, this emoji is widely used to communicate goofiness or silliness. In other cases, it could even be used flirtatiously when paired with other emoji, such as a blushing face of some kind. Beyond these usages, the upside-down face emoji sometimes appears in contexts where the meaning is almost impossible to describe without the surrounding context. Yet, somehow, it works perfectly.
