A lot of people dream of their big day when they tie the knot and all the love that's supposed to come after. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work out that you live happily ever after. After getting divorced, these people all shared what showed them that it was time to let things go and start over.

There are some things that a lot of people look forward to throughout the day. The chance to spend a little quality time with the person they love is one of those things.

There are a lot of things that partners might say to each other in the heat of the moment. Some of them can be fixed with open communication and a genuine apology. This isn't one of those phrases.

Telling your spouse that they're a "dark cloud over your life" might really be hard to move past. As much as this person loved their wife, they realized that their relationship couldn't last past this conversation, which came with some hard realizations.

Sometimes, it isn't what someone says that denotes such a change or shift in your relationship. Instead, what you don't say can cause just as much trouble.

When it comes to fixing up things around the house, it's the responsibility of all the adults present, right? So, naturally, you could argue that this could have been a team effort.
