For people like Morgan, however, no-fault divorce has stripped him of what he views as a constitutional right to protest the dissolution.

He told Chron his views were shaped by watching his father go through a divorce and later experiencing divorce himself, one he did not want.

"When we utter our vows, many people say, 'Till death do you part.'....My vows are more important than anything… I made this vow to God, and my wife was the beneficiary of my vow," Morgan argued.

In other words, another "I treated my wife like shit and then she divorced me, how dare she!?" asshole

My wife's ex is one like that, literally asked me to sign the "transfer of ownership papers hurr durr"

He constantly is full with "I gave you everything!" Which you have to read as: I gave you money, nothing else, no love, no joy, no happiness, only money things like an expensive house, expensive car, money for bigger tits and botox, which she refused, so she got the constant criticisms about how she looked.

If your partner doesn't want to be with you anymore oy for a reason. Maybe the love is gone, that happens, maybe they fell in love with someone else, that happens, or maybe you're a giant narcissistic raging asshole with psychopathic tendencies who loves to use his children as chess pieces to always get what you want.

Either way, if your partner doesn't want to be with you and you force your partner to stay with you... You really think that is a good idea?

Are we really going back to the "yeah my husband slipped and fell on his gun" times? Idiots

I'm telling you, officer. He LOVED the sweet bitter taste of antifreeze. I warned him so much!
