#1 Not Liking The Movie 'Frozen'

For this Japanese couple, all it took for a swift split was a disagreement on a movie. That disagreement came about when the wife became obsessed with Disney's Frozen. After seeing the film alone, she decided to share her addiction with her husband who's review was."Meh" And that was all it took for her to file for a divorce, even going as far to say "If you don't understand why this movie is great there is something wrong with you as a human being".

#2 Not Changing Your Facebook Status

many marriages have met their end because of facebook, but normally it's because it busts people cheating. However, this case is one for the record books.

This may come as a shock but not everyone gives a damn about social media and that was this guy's fatal flaw. Trouble started when his wife of 4 months noticed that he hadn't changed his relationship status yet. That bastard!

When interrogated over this breach of trust he argued "I forgot", and that's when she wanted a divorce. The judge sent them to couples therapy so let's hope they can talk some sense into him. In other words, 'it's complicated'!

#3 Cleaning Too Much

Most of the time couples argue about who's doing the most housework, but in this doomed relationship it was intolerably clear.

This story comes from Germany where a woman filed for divorce simply because her husband cleaned the house obsessively. The breaking point though was when he knocked down and rebuilt a wall just because it was too dirty. The judge in the divorce proceedings admitted that he'd never had a case like this before. I still don't get why he knocked the wall down, surely a can of paint would have done the trick.

#4 Supporting The Olympics

This incident happened in China but politics aside this really has to do with going just a bit overboard.

56-year-old Wang Yueting sold his apartment to buy a van and hire 6 people to assist him on his 20080-mile run. Why? So that he could show China's Olympic spirit ahead of the 2008 games in Beijing. His wife was having none of that and warned the run would result in divorce. But Wang wasn't going to let that extinguish his flame and did the run anyway. Wang is now single.

#5 She Was Possessed By A Genie

Is your wife holding back sex from you? Acting irritable? Well, then she may have a case of Genie possession.

The only known cure is to get her straight to an exorcist and if that doesn't work you gotta straight out dump her ass. This divorce case from the UAE found that Djinn possession is a legally recognised reason to leave your wife and not have to pay alimony.

The court heard that the wife apparently hid her condition before the marriage and this apparently classified as deception. "Oh, sorry honey didn't I tell you there's a genie in my heart and Satan lives in my vagina"?

#6

Poker and card games can go a little too far but this guy took his obsession with gambling to a whole different level.

A Russian man lost his entire savings, including his car and home, in a single poker game against his opponent. He really wanted to continue playing to try and get his money back but he had nothing else to ante with. So he did the unthinkable. He bet his wife.

He lost the hand and his wife. When the other player actually showed up to collect his winnings, including the wife, which made her absolutely furious. She went the next day and filed for a divorce. Oddly, she began a relationship with the winning opponent and ended up marrying him.

#7 She Wanted Sex Too Often

Sometimes too much of a good thing can be very, very bad for your healtheven if that thing is sex.

A Mumbai man requested a divorce on the grounds that his wife's sex drive was insatiable. Which sounds like BS but the man was constantly hassled, even twice when he was recovering in hospital. And by hassled I mean threatened that if he didn't get it up she'd go elsewhere.

Eventually after the hospital stuff and finding out she was slipping him libido enhancers, he decided enough was enough.I'm sure there's plenty of guys out there who will be a better match for her.

#8 Too Many Cats

In Isreal, a man filed for divorce because his wife liked the attention of the feline persuasion.

He finally said "enough is enough' when she brought over 500 cats into the home. At first, when she had a few, he was fine with it and enjoyed the company of the cats. But before long the number grew, and she was spending more money on cat food then she was on food to feed her new husband.

The cats were in the way of everything, crowding the kitchen, the bathroom, and even the bedroom. That's when he filed for a divorce and was granted his freedom from the Catwoman.

#9 Size Matters

Let's just say there are some downsides to waiting until your wedding night.

A 52-yr old Taiwanese woman filed for divorce because her husband's penis was shockingly only 5 inches long. This size queen only discovered the *cough* undersized member on their wedding night. Surprisingly the court saw this as reasonable and granted the divorce.

Still she endured for 4 years before asking finally cracking. You gotta feel for this guy considering studies say the average penis size in Taiwan is 4.2 inches, he's not doing too bad for himself.

#10 He Talked Too Much

They say loose lips sink ships but they didn't tell you they will sink your marriage as well.

This divorce story comes from Nigeria where it's now acceptable to leave your husband because he won't shut the fuck up. Mariam Adunni claimed her husband was talking about secret family matters with his friends.

I'm guessing that translates to "he was talking about me behind my back and I didn't like it". Unless maybe there's something actually secret that Mariam is trying to hide.

#11 Kissing A Horse

This guy who gets the medal for being the most insecure man on the face of the planet.

This Saudi husband lost his mind the day he saw his beloved had posted a photo of her giving a horse a kiss. Treating the situation no different than if she had kissed another man, he demanded an apology and to take the humiliating photo down. To which she said, "No, it's just a horse".

Of course, he just couldn't let it go and the couple split. She was reportedly happy to be divorced while he's probably at home crying over photo still. "What does that horse have that I don't!"

#12 Feeding Stray Dogs

After 50 years of bliss, a Romanian woman filed for divorce from her dog loving hubby. He was feeding all of the stray dogs in the area, and spending all of the family money. At first, he began buying cuts of meat to feed a couple of neighborhood dogs, but within months, it rose to over 50 stray dogs appearing at the door to be fed. She was granted her divorce and the husband was ordered to undergo therapy for his obsession with dogs.

#14 You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly

Imagine this, you have a beautiful, gorgeous wife who is about to give birth to your child. You think with both yours and her good looks she's gonna be adorable.

But then you lay eyes on your child. Dear god! She'sShe's ugly! How can this be? The baby should look nearly perfect. Then you do some digging and find out your wife has been lying to you your whole marriage. She's had plastic surgery. Over $100,000 dollars worth of it! And divorce swiftly ensues because she not only produced a horrifically ugly baby, she also lied to you the entire marriage.

This case from China has been reported numerous times since 2004, putting it into the realm of urban legends but considering the other stuff we've seen so far I don't find it hard to believe.
