Is CT a no fault state divorce?

Connecticut is a “no-fault” divorce state, meaning that one only needs to state that their marriage is “broken down irretrievably” to dissolve their marriage. “No fault,” however, does not mean that a court will not consider whether one spouse is the reason why the marriage broke down to begin with.

Is infidelity a reason for divorce?

Infidelity isn’t great for your marriage, but cheating itself is seldom to blame for divorce. Indeed, studies suggest that happily married people who cheat (out of opportunity, and not due to underlying marriage problems) do not typically split up.

How long do extramarital affairs usually last?

As if a “moment of indiscretion” or “lapse in judgment” isn’t bad enough, long-term infidelity is a scourge that can’t be ignored. While about 50% of affairs last between one month and one year, the long-term affair lasts 15 months or more. About 30% of affairs last two years or more.

Can marriages survive long term affairs?

Some marriages survive a one-time, or maybe even a short-term affair, especially during a long marriage. But most marriages do not survive ongoing infidelity of any kind. If your spouse is not willing to stop behaviors that are destructive to you and to your family, your marriage will not survive.

Why do emotional affairs hurt so much?
