Has anyone divorced in their 20s?

My marriage is crumbling and I think that's where we are heading, in truth we shouldn't have got married as it's become clear now that we are just totally different people. Sex life is barely there and I just don't feel like he respects me at all anymore. I feel like the only person in the world this is happening to, anyone else have a similar experience or hopeful stories?

Yes I divorced at 23, together six years. Still recovering.

Married at 22, it didn't last two years. Married again at 42, blissfully happy almost 10yrs later. No need to feel alone; I thought this sort of thing was very common. Flowers

I know 2 people who got divorced in their 20s and met their second husbands in their 30s and are happy now

Thanks everyone, I guess it is more common than you realise. Feels like the biggest deal in the world right now but it's good to be reminded that life will go on. It's just finding for courage to face it for me, we're both unhappy but I think he'd be happy to just plod along. At 28 it seems too young to settle for a crap sex life and constant bickering
