Reasons for Divorce

Reasons for Divorce: How Many Cats are Too Many Cats?

People file for divorce for many different reasons, some stranger than others. Maybe one spouse meets someone new, maybe a couple simply drifts apart, or maybe one spouse adopts 550 cats.

There are bizarre and hard to believe stories from all over the globe accounting for a spouse’s reason for filing for divorce. One husband came home to find that his home was overrun with 550 adopted cats, and when given an ultimatum, the wife chose her newfound friends. A woman divorced her husband because he did not like the movie “Frozen” as much as she did.

A wife filed for divorce after her new husband insisted on bringing his mother on their honeymoon. A man lost his wife in a poker game, so she filed for divorce. One husband heard the pet bird saying words like “divorce,” and “be patient,” leading him to learn that his wife was having an affair.

One wife filed for divorce because her husband had not changed his Facebook status to “married” two months after the wedding. And, one woman was looking through her husband’s phone and noticed that her number was saved under the nickname “Guantanamo.”

Marriages end for all sorts of reasons and, whatever the reason, competent, experienced counsel can make all the difference in getting through the process as uneventfully as is possible.
