For thousands of years until today, the best way to officially be someone's partner is through marriage. People have been practicing marriage for a long time. It is the best act to celebrate the love of a couple until death tears them apart. However, people fail to keep their promise of marriage forever. This situation leads to the phenomenon called divorce, which unfortunately is becoming more common than ever and leading to significant new effects in the lives of those involved. Some causes of divorce vary from couple to couple, but the most common are usually the changing role of women in society, lack of communication, and lack of trust in the relationship. An important cause that leads to divorce is the change in women's relationship. roles. In the past, women depended only on their husband's income. During this time, they had to do most of the household chores. In other words, men took care of providing financially while women took care of the family. Today, equality between women and men is less problematic. Women can have jobs, earn their own money and finance their living expenses. Meanwhile, men can do the same household tasks that women previously focused on, such as caring for children, doing laundry, cleaning, and cooking. Additionally, another major cause contributing to divorce is lack of communication. Communication is very important, especially in relationships like marriage. Imagine a football or baseball game; It is important that players on the team have effective communication with each other if they are to successfully complete their games. If they communicate correctly, they can win games, the same way we can solve our relationship problems. Som...... middle of paper ......b. October 22, 2014.
