>the divorce will be much faster, the finances involved will be fair smoother, and the process from there is far more defined.
Hell no, it won't be faster. If you commit a crime while in the middle of a divorce, you now have two court-related headaches to deal with. The first is the divorce case and now you also gotta show up to court to answer for your domestic violence crime as well. You just added one legal mess on top of another mess.
"Faster", my ass. You just doubled your time in court.
>You're telling me there exists a couple that has the ability to neatly and calmly amicably divorce each other and navigate the intense legal and financial problems that entails, yet simultaneously doesn't have the ability to get along with each other? Who are these hypothetically people you describe?
Well yeah. All divorces are messy, but they can still be relatively non-vitriolic if both parties are mature enough to handle it like adults. Or are too depressed to be hateful about it.
Not everyone who gets a divorce does it in a bitter and vengeful way. When my uncle's 32 year marriage fell apart, he didn't feel any resentful anger towards his ex-wife. They still went through the long arduous divorce process in a mannerly fashion, but the emotions he felt were more heartbroken sadness that the woman he loved no longer wants anything to do with him.
>Fruitful? Fruitful in what way? What fruit does a relationship bear? What is the entire point of a relationship supposed to be? What does a relationship do?
Oh boy... do I really have to explain what the word "fruitful" means? Here, let me spoonfeed you by giving you a dictionary definition.
Fruitful definition - Producing good or helpful results; productive.
So if you want have a good relationship with anyone (be it a friend, lover, coworker, etc), getting along with person is a good first step towards it being fruitful and beneficial for everyone involved.
>That's not our options though, our options are dysfunctional relationship with two people living in the same house, and dysfunctional relationship with doubled living expenses, parents pitting the child against each other and an exponential increase in the operational overhead of navigating around the child from travel, moving costs, etc.
All are shitty options, yes. But if I was forced to choose, I'd say that "dysfunctional relationship with doubled living expenses" is probably the least shittiest option... imo anyways. The dad has his own place. The mom has her own place. They don't have to see each other much and aren't constantly fighting every day.
