Sometimes it happens. Two people fall out of love and lose their
connection to one another. Maybe they’ve tried hard to fix things, to
no avail. Maybe they have kept things going for so long that they run
out of the energy or willingness to continue. Maybe being together just
doesn’t make sense anymore. It happens, quite often, in fact. That
doesn’t mean these people are failures or that they are bad people. But
that’s probably what they’re thinking about themselves, due mostly to
the dominant perception and narrative surrounding marriage.
Couldn’t
there be another way to look at it? Isn’t it possible for this to be
the best decision for two people, and their family? I would say, it
happens. And if care is taken in the process, it doesn’t have to be the end of the world. Instead it could be a wonderful beginning.
