Choice (Divorces)

A story from “The River Reader”

Divorces

To me divorce is a failure because reading these two stories really made me think that the only way that she failed during her marriage was because her mom failed to leave her father for his wrong doing, so when she grew up to be a mother herself she felt as if she was going through the same thing and, so she left her husband because he too was not a good man.  She also didn’t want her daughter to feel trapped or become a failure like she did. Being or going through a divorce is a failure because you and your partner agreed during your vows that you would for ever trust and love each other etc. that shows that the couple was never meant to be and they were dishonest. During a divorce I think its often one person that doesn’t see fit in the relationship for them to stay or work it out. But situations like this in The Tale of two Divorces the writers one that was, and one that was not one wasn’t getting treated fairly. Well both weren’t but one just saw that it was time to go while the other stayed an didn’t get the chance to live happily ever after because she decided to stay in that horrible marriage and she thought that what she saw was that he loved her, and that’s what she called love which was not. After living all those years your mind starts to think that the only way you’re being treated that way was because, one or he/she either loved you, or he was just having a bad day which it shouldn’t be like that on a daily basis. But one thing is, is that you should never feel like it was your fault or you’re not the one for anyone because in the end everyone deserves to be happy and loved.
