Divorce

When poverty comes in the door love flies out the window. ...

The saddest thing in the world is loving someone who used to love you. ~ Anonymous

Unrequited love is a ridiculous state, and it makes those in it behave ridiculously. ~ Cassandra Clare

Every broken heart has screamed at one time or another: "Why can't you see who I truly am?" ~ Shannon L. Alder

Ask me why I keep on loving you when it's clear that you don't feel the same way for me. The problem is that as much as I can't force you to love me, I can't force myself to stop loving you. ~ Anonymous

There's nothing quite so humbling as thinking you're completely over someone, then realizing you're not even close. ~ Brian Strause, Maybe a Miracle

�The only thing more unthinkable than leaving was staying; the only thing more impossible than staying was leaving. I didn't want to destroy anything or anybody. I just wanted to slip quietly out the back door, without causing any fuss or consequences, and then not stop running until I reached Greenland.�  E Gilbert

�Nice people don't necessarily fall in love with nice people.�  J. Franzen

�But in the real world, you couldnt really just split a family down the middle, mom on one side, dad the other, with the child equally divided between. It was like when you ripped a piece of paper into two: no matter how you tried, the seams never fit exactly right again. It was what you couldn't see, those tiniest of pieces, that were lost in the severing, and their absence kept everything from being complete.�   S. Dessen

�Divorce isn't such a tragedy. A tragedy's staying in an unhappy marriage, teaching your children the wrong things about love. Nobody ever died of divorce.�   J. Weiner

�He went on for some time while I sat listening in silence because I knew he was right, and like two people who have loved each other however imperfectly, who have tried to make a life together, however imperfectly, who have lived side by side and watched the wrinkles slowly form at the corner of the other's eyes, and watched a little drop of gray, as if poured from a jug, drop into the other's skin and spread itself evenly, listening to the other's coughs and sneezes and little collected mumblings, like two people who'd had one idea together and slowly allowed that idea to be replaced with two separate, less hopeful, less ambitious ideas, we spoke deep into the night, and the next day, and the next night. For forty days and forty nights, I want to say, but the fact of the matter is it only took three. One of us had loved the other more perfectly, had watched the other more closely, and one of us listened and the other hadn't, and one of us held on to the ambition of the one idea far longer than was reasonable, whereas the other, passing a garbage can one night, had casually thrown it away.�   N. Krauss

�In every marriage more than a week old, there are grounds for divorce. The trick is to find and continue to find grounds for marriage.�  R. Anderson

Shaykh Ibn �Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: 

It is narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: �The most hated of permissible things to Allaah is divorce.� This hadeeth is not saheeh, but its meaning is sound: Allaah hates divorce, but He does not forbid it to His slaves, so as to make things easier for them.
