Men cause most divorces because they like to fix things. In practical terms, this is how the scenario plays out. Husband and wife begin having more “discussions” turn into arguments without resolution. The anger spills over into less expressions of appreciation and acknowledgement of the other. He feels that she is less happy to see him when he comes home from work. Sex becomes more robotic. She feels the loss before he does and suggests they see a marriage counselor. He becomes more willing to talk to her so they can work out their own problems. Bad feelings increase. She makes an appointment for counseling and he calls it off, sure that he can fix it. They even attend one counseling appointment, but then he goes back to his stubborn, self-sufficient belief that he can fix it like he does everything else. Divorce enters the conversation as a possible way to resolve their issues. He rejects that and continues his belief that he can fix the marriage. One day he gets a letter from her lawyer that she is divorcing him. He is utterly shocked! Why didn’t he know that she felt like this!
