break-up vs divorce question?
How come a divorce is automatically so much worse then just a break up?
Unmarried people can have children together, which means paying child support, unmarried people can buy things jointly and have ownership disputes.
So tell me, do an expensive ring and a magic piece of paper (marriage certificate) really make a relationship all that much more significant? So much so that people have baggage over a divorce for the rest of their lives? I mean people break up after living together for years and they cope just fine. It just doesn’t make any sense to me. Someone explain.

It really depends on the people that are involved.
My ex and I agree when it comes to the kids… but the money is a whole different thing- So now the judge is involved. No big deal. She thinks I am being unreasonable and visa versa.
I have seen a divorce that took 16 years to do and I will not even go into the homes that sold, and the allegations. Oh, one thing I will tell you is that she actually shot him once.
It really just boils down to the people involved.
Some people divorce and cope just fine aswell.
Its depends on the situation!!
Also ………if you are not married, then you have no legal entitlements to assets etc etc ……….
If you are married, then you are entitled to half the assets, and when it comes to money, people get really nasty sometimes….
When a committed relationship breaks up, the pain is real. Being married or not.
Marriage is commitment…with that being said;
It depends on the situation, when you get married you have vowels, Its usually something you want to do…..your families are involved, and in most cases there are children that most marriages do plan when their married……I’m not saying that it’s not the same as living with someone for "X" amount of years and it "not work-out". But most of the time when you live with someone without getting married it is mainly out of convenience….cause a marriage license is not a lot of money….when a women loves a man they would get married with them without a fancy ring or wedding…and when a men loves a women he would go out of his way to be with that person forever.
Any breakup is bad & in fact my worst ever was basically just a bf/gf situation. I became celibate for more than 5 yrs because it was that painful. I never discount a person’s feelings because they aren’t married. A divorce is viewed a bit differently because there’s so much more to deal with normally. I’m married now & I would be shattered because I took vows. I never did that before. There’s just such a finality to it that feels like you can never go back. And some divorces can be really ugly leaving people stewing in a mess of paperwork for months or years on end. It’s not a clean break for everyone & just leaves people reeling from the whole experience. For a lot of people holding up a divorce is a means of torture & payback.
Anything you wind up in court over makes it worse!
