Sacred to me? Not anymore! On Bezeq’s divorce
When it comes to the survival chances of married life, the saying “until death do us part” has long since lost its relevance.
In fact, a significant percentage of couples are expected to break up at some point over the years, due to a sense of exhaustion, burnout, and other circumstances.
However, alongside couples who go a long way together, to the breaking point, in some cases marital relationships come to an end surprisingly close to the wedding.
Such a separation, which occurs sooner than expected, even days to months after the wedding ceremony, surprises even the most pessimistic, and leaves quite a few legal dilemmas.
The reasons for quick divorces are fundamentally different from those of regular divorces, as short-term marriages do not usually break up due to wear and tear. Among the common reasons for deciding to divorce, one can mention natural disillusionment from a state of infatuation, if the marriage was formed after a short and passionate relationship of a few months.
Another reason for quick divorces is late hesitation about the quality of the relationship, and the fear of canceling a wedding at the last minute.
These are couples who internalize the problems in their relationship even during the wedding planning stage, especially during the pressure cooker of organizing and producing the event, but fear the consequences of such a breakup, just before walking down the aisle.
In other cases, couples suddenly realize the significance of the decision to start a family together, and believe that their partner will not be suitable parents. Couples who married because of an unplanned pregnancy often find that a relationship that has become binding because of a common child, binds them to a relationship that they do not want at all.
In general, quick divorces can be attributed to couples who have a natural tendency to please others around them. These people gave in to social and family pressure to get married, and after getting tired of explaining why they hadn’t yet formalized the relationship, they broke up without really wanting to.
Even relatively older couples may marry rashly, discover that they have lost their independence to an unsuitable relationship, and return to it shortly after the wedding.
A quick divorce has a great advantage in terms of the couple’s ability to recover and start Chapter 2 of their lives. The chances of ending the relationship on a good note also increase, since the amount of accumulated debt is less.
Family Law – What Does the Law Say?
From a legal perspective, the process of dissolving a marriage in a flash is less complex than dissolving a marriage after many years of marriage.
In many cases, there are still no joint children in the picture, so legal issues that usually constitute a central pillar in the conflict between the spouses, such as Foods and viewing arrangements are not on the agenda.
In addition, these are mostly parties that have not yet accumulated Property shared Such as a residential apartment, or they have not yet accumulated joint assets, except for wedding gifts that should be divided equally between the parties in accordance with the law on financial relations between the spouses.
If debts are incurred due to the wedding event itself, the couple should share the burden of covering the debts equally.
In most cases in Israel, among couples who married in religious marriages, The issue of the ketubah also arises..
When a ketubah is involved, if the husband initiates the dissolution of the marriage while the wife declares her willingness to try to preserve the family unit, he may be bound by the ketubah or part of it.
Another legal aspect of a quick divorce concerns a tort claim by the spouse who is perceived as responsible for the dissolution of the marriage.
According to law, there is a tort of causing a breach of contract, and ostensibly, one can sue for it if one causes the breach of the marriage contract between the spouses who signed it.
However, the application of this tort in the context of Divorce Here’s the problem. In the past, these lawsuits were filed against lovers that resulted in the dissolution of the family unit, but they were rejected by the court.
It may be possible, in appropriate cases, to file a lawsuit against the other party or a family member who intervened and took sides for the destruction of the marriage, but the burden of proof in this matter is heavy and is not possible in most cases brought before the court.
In the circumstances of a tort claim for breach of a marriage promise, elements of mental anguish or the emotional damage experienced by the injured spouse are taken into account, however, these are elements for which the courts do not usually compensate in significant amounts.

When guests and relatives feel cheated
When the couple’s relatives and circle of friends come to celebrate their joy, they usually bring a bag of oil with them as a gift for the young couple.
The intention behind the generous gift is to assist the couple at the beginning of their journey together, on the path to starting a family and establishing a married life.
When that married life comes to an end within a few weeks or months, guests and relatives can feel cheated. Indeed, two elements from the realm of contract law can be attributed to this problematic situation.
One is the element of reliance and the other is the element of expectations. That is, the guests who gave generously relied on the fact that the gift was being given for a specific purpose and had an expectation that this goal of building a home for the couple would be realized.
Since deceived guests usually conquer their instincts and refrain from suing, it is difficult to determine what the court would have believed or ruled in these cases.

A month after the wedding, they get divorced. Why?
Recently, lawyers have been encountering more and more cases of quick divorces: couples who, a month or two after the wedding, decide to break up and get divorced.
What are the reasons for these quick divorces and what distinguishes quick divorces from regular divorces? Today, the phenomenon is expanding and characterizes mainly young couples whose pressure and intervention from extended family negatively affect their relationship, sometimes to the point of ending it.
Most couples navigate this family minefield, but recently, and especially in light of the unbearable ease of rushing into divorce proceedings and the legitimacy that this phenomenon has received, the extended family is not inclined to give up and leads to the destruction of a newly formed family unit.
Who is going to get divorced soon?
There are two groups of couples who can be characterized by a quick divorce. The first group includes couples who have been together for a very long time, 7-10 years, and who are formalizing the relationship.
These are usually high school sweethearts who have never known a relationship before, young couples aged 21-25 whose life and social and family pressure, in light of their many years of friendship, led them to get married, without really thinking and understanding what they were getting into and without being able to stop the surrounding pressure.
These couples can be characterized by emotional immaturity and a lack of understanding of the significance of the institution of marriage. The perception of life for these couples is a romantic and childish one, fueled mainly by fairy tales.
The second group is a group of mature couples aged 35-43, for whom this is their first marriage, which took shape faster than expected, sometimes within only six months of getting to know each other.
These couples married due to the familiar social pressure to get married, start a family, and settle down. They are mature in terms of age, but they do not know how to live as a couple, and they lack the wisdom of life that married couples grow into, including the personal, marital, and family education of each other.
Family accounting and jealousy
Among the factors that lead to quick divorces among young couples of their age, the involvement of the extended family plays a decisive role. The more tribal the families are and the more involved they are in family events, the greater the impact.
Also, due to their young age and lack of emotional maturity or lack of a sense of independence, the couple tends to be very attached to the family of origin and be influenced by it.
For example, matters of seemingly insignificant insults (not showing enough respect to a grandparent) can lead to an explosion, as the matter is “ground up” within the family framework after the wedding.
Added to these are matters of financing the wedding and gifts. If the parties come from the same socioeconomic background, there are usually no problems, but when there are economic disparities and when wedding accounting begins, the couple may not survive.
The nature of the pressures on couples getting married is also different, varied and original. There are threats from relatives not to attend the wedding in the face of some insult or other, or even if the venue is not respectable enough in the opinion of the invitee. There are tensions after the event itself, dragging the entire family into conflict.
The most difficult cases are those in which the parents issue an ultimatum – either us or the spouse. The younger of the couples will usually respond to this ultimatum by preferring the original cell.
Quick divorces at an older age arise for the opposite reason. While the family is happy about the wedding that has finally arrived, the couple – whether together or separately – realize very quickly that the relationship will not survive a long married life and they themselves initiate the separation.
