45 Of The Dumbest And Weirdest Reasons That Pushed People To Get A Divorce

Friend’s wife went to a psychic who said she should divorce her husband. So she did.

They'd been married 19 years and she did everything. She was the main breadwinner, paid all the bills, did all the housework, cooked every meal. He had it *good*. He was over 500lbs of basically dead weight but she loved him so much she didn't mind. Then he had the nerve to ask for an open marriage. She decided to allow it. He started dating me and her and I got along great.

The issue is I'm not that type of woman. I don't wait on people. He's a grown man ffs. Then he started helping me with stuff I'd do at their house like making dinner. She watched him be a whole boyfriend to me, court me and help me. He hadnt done that stuff for her in years. We both dumped him at the same time realizing we both likely deserved better. I swear I saw her fall out of love with him over that salad, though.

TLDR: Her husband helped me make a salad then helped me load the dishwasher. I saw it happen in her eyes as she watched. It wasn't the only thing but that straw definitely broke the camels back.

Not married, but an ex walked out on me six weeks after a knee reconstruction. Said she quote “Couldn’t handle living with a c*****e.”

It wasn’t like I was in a wheelchair, unable to wash myself, feed myself, cook or wipe my own a**e.

Sure I occasionally needed help getting dressed when I was in pain and couldn’t bend my knee much because of the brace I was in.

Karmas a b***h, after we split and I’d healed up I f****d off to Europe, came back to Oz, spotted her in a local shopping centre, she’d put on some weight and had three kids under five.

I used to be in a local Twilight club when I was 14. A 40something year old lady read her daughter's Twilight and New Moon, decided her husband is NOT a Cullen and got a divorce, including Twilight quotes. She would call herself a "Cullen B***h".

I told my mom and she told me not to go to that local book club again.

Husband would not stop playing WoW. Evenings, weekends, their anniversary, both their birthdays. Endless.

Edit: I'm apparently completely clueless as to how many relationships this (and other) games have destroyed. For many years I was a professional videogame reviewer for one of the largest sites on the web, and I had never seen anything like this until this couple I knew split up.

A 10 year relationship ended over a puppy pee pad.

The two people lived together and they had always been volatile in our friend group, both were awesome people but he often got unusually hateful towards her when he was drinking or out with the boys. We’d be cleaning up after a BBQ and she would be tired and ask him if they could go home, and he would scream at her saying he wasn’t ready yet and say she was such a b***h for demanding so much of him. She would be visible upset and ask him not to speak to her like that particularly in front of people (that broke my heart) and he would say these were his friends and they have a right to see this because he was just being himself. We’d have to pull her aside to tell her he shouldn’t speak to her that way.

After the got a second dog, if all fell apart for them it seems, the guy wasn’t doing much but bragging on the chat that she was doing all of the work like sleeping on the couch next to the puppy’s enclosure so it didn’t wake him (it was his idea for the puppy). He worked full time WFH (played games with us but had been on for hours at that point) and she was always on work trips or in the office.

One morning the chat gets blasted from him saying she said she was done because he hadn’t changed the pee pads while he was WFH and she was working in the office and he couldn’t comprehend how “she left me over a single effing pee pad”.

Dude still complains to this day how petty she was :/.

There were other reasons too, but what ultimately made me leave my ex-wife was realizing that she was completely opposed to anything that made me happy. Anything I liked was stupid, anything I wanted was stupid and out of the question. The day I realized it was over, we were shopping for a new car for me. Budget was $100k or less. We were on a lot with a bunch of cars and I wanted to go look at a Porsche SUV that was well below the budget and she told me I "need to pull my head out of my a*s". I was like, you're right, I do.

I've posted this before, but it's a goody so here it is again:

A friend of a friend once told me how his marriage ended after one night.

Wedding day. Everything goes perfect.
They wake up the next morning and the following conversation takes place.

Her: "So what do you want to do today?"

Him: "Oh after yesterday I'm looking forward to doing nothing to be honest. Just chilling if you know what I mean?"

Her: "Well I don't want to do nothing. If that's how this is going to be I think we've made a mistake here."

Boom. Marriage over there and then.

As a side note he then went down to the hotel bar where he found the singer from Jamiroquai, Jay Kay who noticed he was down and asked what was wrong. Long story short Jay Kay got him plastered over the next few hours as they hung out together to help him get over it.

A girl I know got drunk at a party, went to use the bathroom, forgot to take her underwear off and wet it. So she decided to throw it away and forgot all about it. Her husband made his own conclusion and thought she cheated on him and left her.

My mom divorced one of the only decent dudes she dated because he asked her to pay the wedding ring payment during the month of his daughter's birthday because he was short on cash.

My mums best friend was dumped by her girlfriend of 7 years because she suddenly realised that she couldn't date a Gemini.

Her husband wouldn't stop hanging his underwear on the doorknob.

Had a friend who divorced her 5th(?) husband because he kicked her dog out of bed. True story.

I used to know someone who's husband divorced her for brushing her teeth at the kitchen sink, once. She was in a rush for work and left it at the kitchen sink. He came home first and found her toothbrush. That was apparently too much for him to handle. IIRC, he was severely OCD and couldn't handle any clutter or things out of place.

He convinced her to get breast implants then didn't like them.

Guy I went to collage with his wife of 30 years (he was a older student) filed for divorce over him suddenly farting more. He changed his diet to get healthy and developed a inflamed gut. .

She bought a fancy designer dog to lay in bed with her and it liked him more because he was active.

They were 19 year old virgins from super-conservative families. Had s*x ONCE on their wedding night and called it off because the s*x sucked.

He filed because she drank too much and 1 trip through rehab didn't work. You stick by your partner when they're struggling. I'm lucky he did though, because she is the most beautiful, giving, loving, kind, understanding, empathetic, talented woman I have ever had the pleasure of dating. If he had not filed for divorce, I wouldn't have found the love of my life.

I have a friend whose ex just lost his mind one day. They’d been married over a decade. Came home, yanked her away from their son, threw her against a wall and told her to get out. Accused her of all sorts of insane things from cheating on him to d***ging his food?? It’s been years and he still thinks she did all those things. I guess he had some kind of psychotic break.
