Do you think that most women today lack commitment to their marriages? i.e. leave over verbal abuse, etc.
Truth Seeker 2020 asked:
It seems like any little bad thing there husband does, it is an excuse to leave them. I think it is terrible and is tearing families apart and the kids have to suffer. I believe the idea comes from the womens’ movements that started in the last century.

Leaving somone because of verbal abuse IS a valid reason. Verbal abuse can tear someone down and make them depressed, just as physical abuse can. Verbal abuse more often than not leads to physical abuse.
I don’t think that it is just women who are too quick to get divorced. Both sexes are guilty of rushing to divorce. No one seems to understand that marriages are a sacred thing and they take lots of work.

I don’t think this is true for all women. I am in a verbally abusive marriage and I am doing everything I can too keep it together for our sons sake. I don’t want him to have a broken home. Some women seem too believe that a marriage is a cake walk when really it is a marathon. I have to work everyday too keep mine above water. You just have to find that one women who shares your ideas of marriage. GOod luck.

What you call “any little bad thing” may be a real emotional spiral for someone else. If you communicate something to someone and you have obviously disrespected them, then why would you do it again? Women are not with you to be insulted and I assume that you do not want to be insulted either or verbal abused. My advice, pray for the person instead of speaking.

not to be mean or anything , but i don’t think women leave because they try to have an excuse to leave , they leave because its not fair to have to deal with verbal abuse , nor physical abuse. i don’t think anyone no matter what gender should bear with this. its not right , and it will deteriorate a persons being. nobody lacks commitment , but nobody deserves to be treated like sh*t either.
PLEASE SOMEONE ANSWER MINE , I REALLY REALLY NEED

Kids only suffer when they watch their Dad run down their Mom. You stupid fool.
How about the man’s lack of commitment to their marriage by verbally abusing their wife?

Another troll. How lovely. It must be nice to have so little to do that you have time to sit around trying to bait people on here. Hey, aren’t you the same guy who posted that question earlier about being praised for pitching in and doing a tiny bit of women’s work?

Sadly it is far worse. there are women who will leave over the smallest of material things (ie Bigger, Richer, Fancier) and not look back. I have seen this happen. We need to reclaim our women!

Maybe this will help you keep the faith: My husband of 15 years cheated on me and I will do whatever it takes to keep my family together. Granted if this became a pattern or if he ever sees this husband poacher again, I would have to leave, but I will save my marriage at all costs right now. I adore being married, having a family, and being loyal. I do agree with you though, but there are still people out there who put family first.

some guys like to bring women completely down so verbal abuse is a definitely a sign of no happiness, some guys are so selfish sometimes… so verbal abuse is a good reason to let go of a commitment some guaren’tent worth it

you’re right. Since women have been liberated they don’t have to take crap from their husbands and stay in an abusive relationship if they don’t want to. Maybe the husband shouldn’t be treating her badly in the first place. The husband took the same vows, to HONOR, OBEY, CHERISH. If he did those things, maybe women wouldn’t leave.

the woman’s liberation movement has nothing to do with MUTUAL RESPECT. i mean seriously what book did all men read from that says it is ok to talk to you woman like she is a dog, or to shove demands at her left and right where did the guys learn this ? i would pay millions to find out where the men learned this from. why is it so hard for a man to treat a woman with the same respect they want to be treated with? let me tell you this for as long as you walk around with the mentality of you being the one in control simply because you stand when you pee you will end up being walked out on over and over again. a real man knows respect, a real man cherishes his better half, a real man can admit his faults and fix them. those are the men that stay in loving realtionships, while guys like you seem to be happy with the lwerglass girls that will end up staying with you but sleeping with your best friend and then you’ll be the one wanting things to work
