Bad News - Increasing Divorced Rate in SG

counselling can help if both parties are willing to compromise...and thats the operative word.

Never easy to do that once minds and hearts become hardened...also unhelpful prodding from 3rd parties dont help.

As always there is collateral damage.

Agree...both must try to make the marriage work
 
There no way to u turn.
1. People more educated want fairness >> all dont want to give want to take advantage
2. Before female respect their husband dont dare to talk back.
3. Now people chasing for money/lifestyle before they think for their family 1st.
4. Aware group make divorce in SG worst because they know they protected.Pay for child maintenance is ok not women maintenance.
5. High living cost before mostly settle home loan max 10 year with one income. Now need 2 income serve for average 25 year.

Too many problem can list until 100....................

hahahaha...no wonder rate is going up..seems that marriage is a dying relationship
 
Counselling? Nah!

Like heart disease, if a marriage is doomed from the start, it will doom iregardless of what! LOL

why doomed from the start? if so, why get married? for money? for status?
 
竞争女人 Singapore Men will face problem when rich PRCs come out to look for potential wife!

You can't understand simply becos you DO NOT have that special ability to sense the type of ppl you see or come across.

If you had, you would not need to ask me for the reason!:D
 
When one party in the marriage has nothing to lose if divorced. It will only encourage people to do it.
 
.............................................. What could be the possible causes of this increased divorced rates?

Personal differences?
Work stress?
Addictions eg gambling, internet, sexual?
marriage dissatisfaction?
etc..

Each individual case will have it own specifics, but generally, education. Not just Sg, but the world over, divorce rates increase with increase in educated women.

Cheers!
 
The main reason is the lies brought upon by the secular world with regards to love and marriage.
 
That's great news. All married people should be divorced, and stay unmarried.

Don't believe the govt propaganda that marriage is good for you. It isn't.
 
SG's divorced rate increased almost 4% in 2011. That's bad news for SG. What could be the possible causes of this increased divorced rates?

Main and only cause of Divorce is Marriage.

相爱容易相处难。 It is easier to love than to live together.

Why you shouldn't marry career women, Michael Noer, Forbes, 2006:

Guys: A word of advice. Marry pretty women or ugly ones. Short ones or tall ones. Blondes or brunettes. Just, whatever you do, don't marry a woman with a career.

Why? Because if many social scientists are to be believed, you run a higher risk of having a rocky marriage. While everyone knows that marriage can be stressful, recent studies have found professional women are more likely to get divorced, more likely to cheat, less likely to have children, and, if they do have kids, they are more likely to be unhappy about it.

----
A recent study in Social Forces, a research journal, found that women--even those with a "feminist" outlook--are happier when their husband is the primary breadwinner.

Oh sure...
If you work very hard: "You never find time to be together with me! You even bring your work home!"
If you take it easy: "You are an unmotivated, unambitious slacker! All my girl friends chose men who earn more!"

Why get married at all? Men, stay single and spare yourself the drama bullshit.
