Money is the top issue, not the only causes of divorce. Irreconcilable difference is also one in early divorces within 2yrs.

Today is Divorce Day, the largest number of divorce enquiries in the UK happens today 8th January, each year, and according to the TV news, the latest available figures show the following from the ONS. (Office of National Statistics) 106,000 divorces took place in 2016. = 5.6% of all heterosexual married couples living in UK. Money/financial pressures are given as the main cause of divorce. 43% of marriages now end in divorce, with the average length of a marriage only 12 years. Since it continues to increase and there is now nearly a 50/50 chance that a marriage will fail, will marriage survive or decline in future years? What are your thoughts? Marriages will continue because many believe in getting married! No matter if the divorce rate is 60%+ Marriages mostly end because of money issues, physical abuse and desertion! Thanks for the comments, and I agree with you, marriage will continue because there will always be those whom want to marry for many reasons, such as the level of commitment they want in a partnership, their religious belief, and many more. Thanks, I hope too marry again myself. |

It has just become known as that, there is not a formal 'Divorce Day' it is more a colloquialism for the day when the maximum number of divorce applications are made here in the UK. Usually falls around the 8th January, the first week of the new year. Some divorces are celebrated, it all depends on the people involved, but I didn't celebrate. |

I would marry again, the chances it will ever happen for me are probably a bit slim, but I am quite happy on my own and you never know here in Mingle2, you can never say never. |
