Why most of the modern marriages are failing?

Fairy Tale Expectations -

Movies and novels set unrealistic expectations for marriage. People expect a perfect life and avoid dealing with real problems together. Thanks to internet - Real life communications made it more complicated

Individualism - Selfishness:

Building a strong marriage takes lot of compromises and time together. Many people love to spend their time with ofc colleagues, but refuse spend with family. Two jobs in single family, built a confidence that money can save you from all problems

Too Many Choices:

Thanks to internet and dating apps which made it easy to meet new people. This literally gives confidence to leave relationships without fear of being alone for lifelong.

Bad Habits:

Alcohol, weed, and drugs are normalized, but they destroy a personโ€™s inner self. When you lose yourself to these habits, itโ€™s hard to be a good partner because it gives you confidence to do every shit

Late Marriages:

Marrying at older age often means having rigid mindsets. Itโ€™s harder to adapt and change, which can hurt the relationship.

Men want stability from marriage. Women want excitement and drama in life. One canโ€™t coexist with the other. Men usually get their share of excitement and drama from sports + politics. Women tend to get it from people around them. Now that divorces are easy, it is no surprise that they are happening so often. Modern marriages are failing cos it was hard to separate from a failed marriage earlier.

Modern marriages are like smartphones, everyone wants the latest model but they forget that it's the strong signal and reliable connection that really matter. Maybe we need fewer upgrades and more updates to the love software.

It's not always a bad idea to divorce when not happy. The saddest part is live with someone all life always compromising over happiness. It's better to get divorced if two people are incompatible, unhappy then just surviving under societal pressure of what people think like older generations. And then making their kids life a hell. If there is no love between partners, where will kids learn love. I'm very happy that genz prioritizes their happiness over anything and anyone and at the end of the day that is what matters - happiness.

But most divorces are messy. And there is no equality when it comes to marital law.

People are driven by a notion of how perfect marriage should be. Social media, your circle etc are the catalyst of it. The day your notion is challenged, you feel itโ€™s not working and you choose to separate. Its not only about celebrating or showing off in a relationship its also about finding perfection in each otherโ€™s imperfection.

True. People nowadays don't know where to draw the line. They are showcasing anything and everything of their life on socialmedia...example their every day activity, romantic dates , luxury travels etc. Others feel bad that they don't have a life like this and start comparing themselves, leading to disappointment.

I think it's High expectations thats what spoil the relationship.. Husband should earn more buy palace spend more time with wife & kids. Also support in house chores.. its not possible for many.. Even Wife should do office job & cook every time & take care of home & kids perfectly not possible either. Only possible respect each other both needs to believe each other & support each other..

Modern marriages are failing or previous generations tolerated toxic relationships forever for the โ€œsuccessfulโ€ label?
