When we asked single people why their first marriage failed, men’s answers were ‘lack of effort to overcome conflict’ and women’s answers were ‘lack of understanding of partners before marriage.’
On the 11th, remarriage information company Only-U, jointly with marriage information company Biennarae, announced the results of a survey conducted on 518 single men and women (259 men and women each) who wish to remarry across the country from the 4th to the 9th.
First, to the question, ‘Do you think the reason you failed in your first marriage was because you lacked something?’ 30.5% of male respondents answered ‘lack of efforts to overcome conflict’, while 32.1% of women answered ‘lack of understanding of partner before marriage’, the highest respectively. occupied a significant role.
Next, men responded in the order of ‘lack of effort to understand the other partner’ (25.5%), ‘lack of understanding the partner before marriage’ (19.3%), and ‘lack of consideration for the other partner’ (16.6%), while women responded ‘lack of effort to overcome conflict’ (25.1%). %), ‘lack of patience’ (20.4%), and ‘lack of effort to understand the other party’ (15.1%).
An official said, “Men, who are relatively more likely to cause marriage breakdown, are preoccupied with avoiding the moment when a problem arises and often neglect their efforts to resolve the conflict.” He added, “When looking for a spouse, women often focus on economic issues.” “We consider too many aspects, but because of this characteristic, there are many cases where we overlook the other person’s personality, values, and lifestyle,” he explained.
Next, men and women showed a significant difference in the question, ‘What do you regret about treating your spouse in your first marriage?’
Men responded ‘I should have lived a restrained life’ (33.2%) and ‘I should have respected them’ (28.2%), but women responded ‘I should have nagged less’ (34.4%) and ‘I should have treated them brightly’ (28.6%). were chosen as 1st and 2nd places respectively. In addition, men said ‘they should treat me generously’ (18.2%), ‘they should have treated me brightly’ (13.8%), and women said ‘they should have treated me with respect’ (17.4%), ‘I should have lived a disciplined life’ (11.9%), etc. ranked 3rd and 4th.
To the third question, ‘What attitude do you think you need to have to lead a smooth married life after remarriage?’, 34.4% of men answered ‘We must have the will to solve problems,’ and 35.5% of women answered ‘We must be considerate of each other.’ was chosen first. Next, both men and women responded that they should ‘understand each other’ (men 27.0%, women 28.6%), followed by men saying ‘we should be considerate of each other’ (22.4%), and women saying ‘we should have the will to solve problems’ (22.8%), ranking 4th. All answered ‘I have to endure it and live with it’ (16.2% of men, 13.1% of women).
