Many divorces involve a third party who becomes the catalyst in a broken marriage. It is very common for either the husband or wife, locked in what they see has become a boring marriage, to decide to break up after becoming infatuated with someone new. After working for thirty years as one of the UK's top divorce lawyers, I know they almost always fit a stereotype. Sometimes the new relationship works out -- more often it does not. A marriage under strain is never the ideal time to forge new relationships, which may be far more exciting and attractive in the mind than in real life.
Belittling and emasculating behavior has been woven so neatly into the American female psyche that the natural chemistry of male/female relationships has been nullified. The self rewarding feedback of healthy opposite sex relationships is a thing of the past.
Women can generally look at marriage as a simple business transaction that can be dissolved at will at any time to their financial benefit. Men are suckers to be manipulated and women have all the accoutrements to do it.
Now that all of the heavy lifting has been done, men are expendable, right ladies?
Personal accountability is completely lost on our culture.
