Quickie divorces on the rise for post-1980s generation

voice_cd

Many Chinese couples born after 1980 are choosing to tie the knot but also untie it just as quickly.

In China, women can get married when they are 20 years old, 22 for men, so the post-1980s generation is getting hitched, but data from the Shanghai civil administration show 5,786 20-somethings divorced in 2006, accounting for 15.71 percent of the total divorces. In Beijing, 24,952 couples registered for divorce last year. Among them were 52 couples in their 20s who wanted to split up after being married for less than one month.

yeah, nobody will choose parting only when their love is in danger because of different reasons . okay,now let us think how this phenomenon appear so frequent .

these after-80s are so hurried to enter the marriage just because they think they match well when they are in hot love . each other has so many merits and can  give me a safety feeing when we are together. however, sometimes they forget the crutal reality ,not just including the sweet words .  they choose to marry so hastily. after a period of enthusiam , they maybe meet so many trifles they didn't expect before . gradually the contradiction take up and becomes quarrels even fights . two ppl who loved each other before  choose the divorce  when one day they can't bear each other any more.

these after-80s ,don't kid others ,dont' kid yourself !

For my own part,I'm a little naive. So I don't wanna get married so early . Be mature , be responsible.
