Comments twitter facebook Sina Microblog reddit Young couples seeking divorces accounted for almost a third of family and marriagedisputes heard by a city court over the past three years.
Huangpu District People’s Court said yesterday over that period it received more than 700divorce suits involving a party born in the 1980s or later.
And the figures showed that young couples who tie the knot relatively soon after meetingare more likely to end up as divorcees.
Half of those in their 20s and early 30s filing for divorce had married after knowing theirpartner for less than a year. Eight couples married after knowing each other for less than amonth.
A lack of understanding, emotional fragility and low tolerance levels were the three majorreasons for divorcing, according to the analysis.
It gave the example of a 23-year-old woman who married a 31-year-old man a monthafter they first set eyes upon each other in 2010.
However, once they’d tied the knot, she found their values and living habits were totallydifferent.
They argued about the husband being unemployed, ending with him moving out and hiswife filing for divorce.
In another case, a woman who married her husband when she was 26, ended their seven-year marriage, citing continual disputes as the reason.
As both had strong personalities, they argued over often trivial matters on a daily basis.
Matters reached a head when the woman gave birth to their son in 2009, and they neededto decide whose surname the boy would use and where his permanent residence would beregistered.
The average time span of these marriages was three years and nine months, while 10couples called it quits after less than a year.
Zhou Peng, a marriage expert with dating website Baihe.com, said marriage needs not onlya certificate or a pledge, but also a long-term plan.
That includes “compromise, forgiveness and tolerance,” said Zhou.
