“On what grounds can a Marriage be dissolved?"

"If the only grounds on which marriage can be dissolved is unchastity, what happens to ill matched couples? Or do they have to court adultery in order to procure the separation they so much desire so as to attain happiness and salvage what is left of the product of such marriage?"

When there is no other thing to do to save the union, then it can be dissolved.
But however the parties must leave without anger or bitterness or regrets. Should they feel any of this, then they are not ready to part ways. meaning that something can still be done to save the union.
Like i will always say, if we re-exmain all the broke marriages we will see that should they have given an opportunity to work things out we can save 60%

marriage can be dissolved for several reasons. adultery, concubinage, irreconcilable differences, emotional and mental instability are among others.
marriage can also be dissolved if one of the marrying parties has been previously married and such marriage was never annulled or divorced.
check your country's family code.

Marital life ought to begin with earnestness and should continue happily under the shadow of love, tolerance and self-sacrifice. But practically speaking marriage contract and conjugal relations do not in all cases continue to exist till the end of life. In certain cases it becomes impossible for two parties to live together in peace and harmony for various reasons such as their emergence of deep rooted differences. In such circumstances, there must be a suitable way of dissolving a marriage legally, otherwise if the parties are forced to continue to live together, their life is likely to become unbearable. In many cases, the consequences may be most regrettable and even tragic. Anyway, it is evident that as marriage in itself is a social need, in certain circumstances its dissolution is also a social necessity. The social compulsions have forced even the Christians to frame and enforce laws concerning divorce, though their present religious book forbids it except in the case of unchastely and though their Church has for long opposed it vehemently. "But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery". (Matthew, V:32). The divorce act is even passed in Italy, which is the seat of the Pope.

Marriage can also be dissolved if it was formed with one of the parties without full knowledge of the other's past or condition, or if there is undisclosed information, or if one party is incapable of comprehending their actions. Such was the case with Anna Nichole Smith (who married a dying 85 year old).

A marriage can be dissolved on grounds such as adultery,infidelity,abuse and other irreconciliable differences but this can only be done if a court of law believes and the prosecution proves beyond any reasonable doubt that there is ground for divorce and that parties cannot be reconciled.But reconciliation is first tried before divorce can be granted.

Marriage is a contract between two people that are willing to give themselves to each other. When one or both partners are no longer wiling to do so then the marriage should be dissolved.

Why should a court decide whether or not a couple divorces? If the a member or both members in the marriage decide to end the marriage shouldn't they be allowed to as long as the court has a say in how the shared assests are split. Furthermore why do we have grounds in which marriages can be dissolved, like adultry or abuse etc. There doesn't neccessarily need to be a 3rd party or abuse for to couples to simply lose interest in one another.
Therefore, couples should be allowed to seperate themselves simply because they no longer love each other.

before asking for dissolution, its must to know the purpose of marriage:
in my opinon, marriage is for happy life of the spouses, for thier mental and bodily peace, for extending the generations (offspring), so when ever that marriage does not serve the purpose, its better to dissolve it. other wise the unmatched couple for example, instead of mental peace will cause each other more disturbance.
therefore in order to avoid that situation and to save the institution of marriage, it must be dissolved when not serving the purpose! it could be anything!

After wedding, it becames "for better for worse" simply meaning that God can't give you problem bigger than you and not that couples will then see it as a chance/right to do anything h/she likes but personaly understood this fact that both as a partner has to accummodate each other and learn what each other likes or dislike, partners must see themslves as helping hands to another in times of discouragments or misunderstanding, obident and sincerity must be very vital for God to perfect the purpose of joining the two together and I still believing the word "seek God first and every other things shall be added unto you" including good and trustworthy partner.

I agree..when a couple no longer love eachother..there is no point in carrying on the relationship..
Love is what keeps a marriage alive.
Without that..what do you have?
