In some countries, married couples are not allowed to divorce. I was surprised when I heard about it first. So I checked it on the internet and found that it was true. In Philippines and Malta (the worlds’ last two countries where divorce is forbidden), married couples are not allowed to divorce no matter what happened. But the situation might be changed in Malta. Most people voted yes in a referendum on legalizing divorce. The analysts predict that the congress might pass the law to make divorce legal in Malta. What will Philippines do? A debate on divorce will be launched from June 1 to discuss whether divorce should be allowed.

Earlier, divorce had been forbidden in Paraguay, Andorra, San Marino and Ireland. Finally, it was made legal.

Why is divorce forbidden? Do you think it is good to forbid divorce?

GUEST04154 You already have your answer. The last two countries that forbid divorce are changing their minds.

I read a material which said that it was legalized in 1980s. Didn't know it was true or not.

GUEST1888 I can not understand why divorce is forbidden in some countries. If there is no love in a relationship, why do they have to stay together?

Divorce is usually forbidden when the religion of the country is Roman Catholic. Divorce is not allowed in this religion, however in some cases annulment is permitted

Yes, love is blind. But marriage is very important. Think about twice before deciding to marry someone.
