You say you are married to a lovely person.. so why not talk to him/her ( I am assuming her) about your problem.. if spending time with your family is the only issue, then talk to your spouse about how to increase the time with them.
You haven't mentioned what life style changes you are meaning.. but again .. talk about it together. Your spouse is probably already aware of your problems anyway.. so he/she will probably appreciate knowing what is going on inside.
Personally, my feeling is you married for whatever reason.. and as divorce is something that should be thought of last and not first.. insha allah seek other ways (including counselling) to keep this marriage together. For me, there is nothing there to make divorce something to be considering at this time insha allah
yup... the message is... "do not venture into the divorce"....
so many sisters would like to be in your position. yet you spend your time thinking of divorce instead of enjoying it....
it is true that the first 2-3 years is the most testing for a marriage, i suggest you practice sabr.
:)
You mentioned that ur spouse allhumdulillah is gr8, then why think of divorce? You've only been married for a short while, the are many changes after marraige, u just need more time to get used to the adjustments inshallah this is just a phase thingz shuld b alrtie just give it sum time and have sabr.

after a year !? MashAllah thats a bit of time to realise your not ready for marriage ! And MashAllah u said ur spouse is lovely, it must be the shaytan, unless there is another reason in which ur husband is treating you unjustly !?but u said he is lovely and so sounds like hes giving u ur rights etc. If u feel u need your family more, speak to ur spouse about it and all get involved together, rather than u perhaps feelin ur leadin a seperate life from ur family now ... allahu alam, Remember shaytaan will always try to get us with little things to try bring us down... Are u not feelin happy ? InshAllah Allah will help you, ameen !
You can't get a divorce for absolutely no reason. The shaytan is just trying to ruin a good marriage, as usual. Preoccupy yourself with ibbadah and visit your family every weekend and talk to them on te phone everyday.
