Why do you think the divorce rate is getting higher and higher?
As we can see among the world, the divorce rate is growing gradually,not to mention so many people are becoming so afraid of getting married. What do you think of this? I bet most of the couples are extremely happy when they get married,but why just after a few years,they can't be with each other any more?

I think it is because of the great expectations. The couples expect an ideal life full with happiness, continuous newness and everlasting beauty like fairy tales and this is impossible.

There is so many reasons for this dangerous problem, people started to look to marriage even without being capable to afford its responsibilities.
I don't want to blame the couples all the time cause the community itself - and the governments also!! - have a "huge" negative effects on this problem.

As I see it, there are several reasons.
1. Young people DO NOT understand what is it to be wife and husband. They think that marriage means just signing some document and living together. They don't realise that a) they'll have more responsibilities towards each other and b) that dating and living together is quite different cuz their freedoms collide and may limit each other.
Thus after living some time together, they get disappointed. There are lot's of cases when divorsed pairs are still gut friends and even love each other still, or other cases, when people don't love each other, but got used to each other, so they don't divorse though there's no passion or love among them which means that love is not the only reason for marriage or divorse.
2. I'm not sexist or something, but I still think that earlier when there were fixed behaviour borders for both men and women life was better. (It's only part. See my second answer).

3. The last significant thing is that the society has lost it's true values. Not long ago, even about 100 years ago a woman could earn respect if she just brought up good, polite children. Everybody'd envy her and say: Wow, did you see her daughter? She's so kind and behaves like a real lady!" or "Did you see her son? He's strong-willed like his father and is a great man! He's a real gentleman!" So a woman could get respect and status by doing what she's biologically supposed to do. (No offense please, girls)
But now, if a woman wants status and respect from society she must have some career. No one looks at how she brings up her children. So, she tries to work along with her husband and either leaves her children to themselves or just doesn't want to marry at all until she makes a career.
That's what I think about all this. Note please, that I don't want to offend anyone and I respect everyone's choice. I hope you find my answers interesting :)
