Marriage is among the institutions that are undergoing challenges nowadays.Marriage experts, family lawyers, and clergymen who come in frequent contact with married couples have raised the alarm over rising cases of divorce and separation among Kenyan couples.The major cause of separations and divorces in marriage is undoubtedly conflicts.The truth is that any two people placed together for whatever reason will, at one time or another, experience conflict just because they are different from each other. Here is an explanation of how conflicts destroy marriage completely;
1. Failure to deal with conflicts that arise can ruin a marriage.In fact, men and women are created so differently that there is bound to be conflict.Unfortunately, some do not know how to deal with their conflicts and this can end up in divorce.
2. Lack of preparation for marital conflict; many people are not psychologically aware that in marriage, there are marital conflicts. As a result, when these conflicts arise, they receive them as a shock. They are therefore unable to solve them hence divorce.
3. Failure to control moods; human beings were created differently and as such, they tend to react differently to situations. Most couples enter into marriage but they are not aware of their partner's reactions in case a mess arises among them. They believe that they will never fight over anything because they love each other. When a conflict arises, you find that there is one who is moody or both. In this case, divorce becomes a solution.
