It’s been four years, how’re the statistics?
I bet there’s less same sex divorces.
Wonder if it would be the same percentage if there was no adversity…

It’s along the lines of love being a stupid thing to try and pursue to begin with.
It’s impossible for love to last for any extended period of time so why agree to a life long commitment that’s guaranteed to end in either divorce or a loveless marriage where the two people involved slowly grow to hate eachother with each passing day
You know, as the Princess of Love, that really would be a horrible pill to swallow.
The relief, Cadance, is that while divorce is a painful process, it’s often much healthier than staying in a loveless marriage simply because you think that you have to due to societal standards. With divorce, the two parties are then free to seek out new love. Heck, there are even divorced former spouses who become better friends than they ever were after severing their familial bond with each other (while rare, it does happen).
Considering how the marriages in question could turn out otherwise, I think that even if you don’t like it, you’d have to admit it’d be the lesser of two evils.

I dunno, Foster’s got pretty heavy on occasion– Wilt’s backstory is pretty – it just doesn’t seem like there would be many opportunities for that sort of thing given how few adults there were in the show.

This isn’t really that kind of a show– important a storyline as it might be for Target Audience to see– but it could certainly make for an interesting fanfic if done well.
An episode I’d like to see but I’m pretty sure the writers wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole:
Filthy Rich and Spoiled Rich have had enough of each other, and decide to split up. Diamond Tiara stars in an episode where she has to cope with the breakup of her parents’ marriage.
@Dirty Bit
Good point. I’m not sure. In the episode the idea was that this sort of thing is wrong to begin with and wouldn’t work. Not really a way to provoke thought.

Shadows of Evil reference?

Been doing that for over ten years, It does not help. And half the time they don’t even know what to say

Beat me to it.

Sounds like therapy might help, yo. Helped me a bunch after my first break-up.
Surprisingly no one, I’m just naturally dead inside

That is, somewhat, the point.
I don’t know how one begins to determine this.
…I was trying to be a little more general, but I’ll grant that’s one of the things that could happen.

Good point, before divorces became a thing angry house wives just killed there abusive husbands

I’ve been happily married for over twenty years; mileage varies.

Aye. Sesame Street and like programming can do it, but it’d be too heavy for shit like FiM or Foster’s or Fairly Odd Parents. :3

A pretty mature premise
