How do you know when to call it quits on your marriage?Â
Cupid’s Advice:
Divorce can be complicated and nasty, so when do you know whether to keep trying or to call it quits? Cupid has some advice:
1. Do whatever it takes: Ask yourself, have I done everything I can to save the marriage? Perhaps couples counseling is the answer, or maybe time is all you need. Either way, you won’t be happy if you know you threw away your marriage without trying to make it work.
2. Plan: Make sure you have researched, planned and prepared yourself legally for a divorce. If it’s a spontaneous decision and you haven’t done the necessary legwork prior, you probably aren’t ready to call it quits.
3. Forgiveness: Has something happened that can’t be forgiven? Anyone can live with someone, but if something unforgettable has happened it will no longer be a happy marriage. It is about being completely honest. The real question is, are you able to forgive?
When would you call it quits? Let us know below.Â
