35 Funny Divorce Quotes to Crack Up Your Partner When They're Mad
Fights are inevitable in a marriage, but if you are a couple who love teasing each other, here are some funny divorce quotes to pull your partner’s leg.
Marriages take a lot of work to be successful — a couple is a match made in heaven, but they have to work a real deal to make the relationship successful on Earth. If there’s a couple who says, “We never fight” or “We never have had an argument” — know there’s something fishy (like, literally)! Fights and disagreements make a crucial part of married life (not ugly ones, though), and a few couples know how to turn things around in a hilarious way. Divorce is not a joke, and bringing up a topic this sensitive during a fight can make your partner burst out at you. But if you’re a couple who deeply understands each other’s quirks and are sure your partner won’t turn into a Hulk, here are some funny divorce quotes you can share with your partner to crack them up when they are mad (we advise you to proceed with caution).
Yes, these quotes are not for the faint-hearted, and using them in the wrong way or at inappropriate times can make your partner make you sleep on the couch, or worse case, make you pack your bags and leave the home. Okay, enough joking — a partnership is all about embracing each other’s uniqueness, so here are some funny divorce sayings that’ll show your partner how unconventional you are and catch them off guard. But as we said above, this should be done in a light-hearted way and not be used as a method to upset your partner. If your partner takes things deeply by heart, it’s better to share with them love quotes during a fight. But if you guys take things on the unconventional road, here are some funny quotes about divorce at your disposal.

Note: Please note that while these quotes can be used to lighten up the mood, divorce in itself is a highly sensitive subject. Our reviewer, Dr Samar Hafeez, a Clinical Psychologist, sheds some light on the topic, suggesting a few tips to cope with it. Here’s what she has to say about bouncing back from divorce, “Look after yourself and your mental and physical well-being, opt for self-care and indulge in enjoyable activities, reconnect with your deeper self, practice self-acceptance (accepting yourself with all your weaknesses and strengths), and self-compassion to bounce back from divorce. Furthermore, keep to your normal routines as much as possible. Avoid isolation and do not consume drugs, cigarettes, and alcohol to cope, as they only worsen existing issues. Getting adequate sleep, exercise, and nutrition is vital. Socially, embrace new friendships and associates. If it gets too overwhelming, seek divorce counseling.”
Conclusion
Marriage is considered the most precious union of life that brings together two people to celebrate the ups and downs of life. A couple who knows how to fight the healthy way is the one who stays happy in marriage — bringing up the topic of divorce can be the wrong thing to do for most people. However, if you two share a deep loving bond and you’re sure your partner is not going to turn bitter against you, then you can share a few funny divorce quotes with them and make them go LOL. As Chris Rock rightly said, “Only married people understand you can be miserable and happy at the same time.” — you can turn a heated argument into a funny one with these sarcastic jokes about divorce. In the end, we can’t emphasize enough the fact that this shouldn’t be done to demean your partner — do it subtly and say sorry immediately if you have to, but don’t go overboard with these jokes, or else that might hurt your partner.
