Being in a situation where you need to decide whether to stay or give up on a troubled marriage is a great dilemma. You are about to make a crucial decision where the consequences can affect your life for years or worse, for a lifetime.
No one wishes this to happen in their marriage but if you are on the verge of divorce, there are a lot of questions that you need to ask yourself. These questions can be very helpful for you to reflect and think about before getting a divorce. So what are the questions to ask before getting a divorce?
Do you still love your spouse? There are many questions to ask before getting a divorce and one of them is asking yourself if you still have strong feelings of love towards your spouse.
Love is the main ingredient in a relationship and if you still love your spouse the relationship is not hopeless. Due to the demands of married life, the love between couples could be outshined by overwhelming marital problems. The most common issue for married couples is the issue of money.
When couples are overwhelmed by financial issues and debt problems, they sometimes think that divorce is their only way out. If this is happening to you and you still love your spouse, the marriage is not hopeless.
Do you really want your spouse out of your life or do you want to improve your marriage with your spouse? One of the questions to ask before getting a divorce is asking yourself if you still see yourself living with your spouse when things get better.
When the conflict in your marriage or things in your marriage can change or improve, do you see yourself still living with your spouse or do you feel much better living a life without your spouse? Envisioning your life with or without your spouse in the future can be very helpful in coming up with a decision that can have a great impact on your entire life.

Have you exhausted all possible ways and fully utilized all available help to make the relationship work? It is hard to live a life with regrets and “what ifs” so one of the questions to ask before getting a divorce is “Have you given it your all and tried every possible way to save your marriage?”
Have you sought and fully utilized all available help? Failing to save your marriage through marriage counseling under one therapist does not necessarily mean that the marriage has to end. Have you tried finding another therapist before giving up on your marriage?
Are you mentally and emotionally ready for divorce? Divorce is a painful process. Although no one truly knows how painful the process is unless you’ve experienced going through it, still you have to gauge yourself and your character if you have the guts and the heart to go through this painful process.
Are you ready mentally and emotionally to let go of all your emotional attachments to your spouse? Are you ready to give up your family or the dream of having an intact happy family? Are you prepared for the consequences of divorce?
Are you financially ready for divorce? Divorce is a financially draining process. The financial aspect of divorce is not only during the process of divorce but also after the divorce.
One of the questions to ask before getting a divorce is, “Are you financially able to support your divorce process and be able to live and support yourself after the divorce?” Couples who are suffering from financial woes in their marriage and think divorce is the only way out may find themselves suffering more financially because they weren’t prepared financially for divorce.
The greatest dilemma when couples are on the verge of divorce is that they are pressured to make the right decision because it is a decision that can change their lives forever and can have a lasting impact on the lives of their children.
Is getting a divorce the right thing to do? Separation is not always the right decision and there is no guarantee that you are making the right decision. But whatever you decide, what is important is that you are making a decision not out of anger or negative emotions.
Your decision is not only for your own good but you are also considering the welfare of your spouse and your children. Ask yourself if it is good for us? Instead of just asking is it good for me?

The 3 mistakes that lead to divorce (it’s not too late — read this)
These days, around half of all marriages end in divorce.
That’s a pretty sad statistic… especially because so many of those divorces are preventable.
In reality, many marriages end prematurely. Why? Well, there are two reasons.
Neither spouse knows how to prevent the passion, intimacy, and romantic connection from gradually fading away.
They make the 3 “Marriage Murdering Mistakes” that very few people know about… and sadly, these 3 mistakes can quickly drive your marriage into disaster and divorce.
If you’re in this situation…
If your marriage is dead-as-a-doornail…
If you’re heading towards divorce, or even if you’re already at that point…
Then a new video by marriage coach Brad Browning will show you how to stop the downward spiral and breathe some life back into your relationship. (Brad’s a freakin’ genius, by the way.)
I wish I could force every couple experiencing a marriage crisis to watch this new video… because the strategies Brad reveals in it are extremely powerful and might be the difference between “unhappily divorced” and “happily ever after”.
The best part is that you can apply the techniques described in his video on your own… without your spouse even being aware that you’re making an effort to save the marriage.
So don’t lose hope just because your partner refuses to attend marriage counseling, or won’t put in the effort to fix the problems that are slowly eating away at your marriage.
