Definition: Irretrievable breakdown of the marriage is a legal term used in family law to describe a situation where a marriage has broken down beyond repair due to incompatibility between the partners. It is often used as the sole ground for no-fault divorce in many states.

Examples:

@NemoPropheta: don’t get down on yourself, that’s a dream score for many. The fact you’re scoring high on your PTs is a good sign. Do something today to relax and take your mind off of it. Probably subliminally showing how stressed you are about it, which is okay bc same
