Negar Yamin, Mah Monir ChitsazEsfahani, Vahideh Rezaeikahkha

Abstract


Emotional divorce is the first stage in the process of divorce and represents a deteriorating marital relationship. That alienation will replace it. Although husband and wife may continue to be together as a social group, their attraction and trust in each other are lost. Emotional divorce is experienced as a disgusting choice between self-sacrifice and self-hatred. In which each husband and wife suffer from another feeling of sadness and disappointment. Emotional divorce involves a lack of respect, trust and affection for each other. Emotional divorce occurs when men and women live side by side, but do not legalize divorce. Having a child or a negative view of society in divorce can be a reason for not legalizing divorce.
