To them divorce is either infedelity or physical domestic abuse. These do not apply in my case. I filed for divorce due to verbal abuse and unable to work as a team. They won't understand this.

Anyone else have a similar experience??
It takes work on working on how to explain your case to them
No need to learn Chinese for that
But you may want to learn about their culture and how lightly or heavily they take divorce cases
You know you have a good explanation, you just have to explain it right
