'[He] divorced his wife... because she would sleep with a nightlight': 20+ Outrageous reasons couples chose to divorce

Divorce lawyers have heard every reason in the book for why couples have decided to call it quits. It's different for every person—the final straw for one married couple could be something major or something very minor. U/dankph went to the r/AskReddit community to collect some intriguing stories, with divorce lawyers, divorcees, and family members all chiming into tell the story of the most outrageous divorces they've ever encountered.

Living with someone before marriage is a fantastic idea for many people. That way, you won't wind up like the guy from the title of this article, who divorced his wife because she needed to sleep with a nightlight, while he needed a completely darkened room to get any sleep. If only they'd thought of this before spending thousands on a wedding and legally binding themselves together…There's always next time, I suppose!

Another couple broke up because one of them kept playing video games too much. Once again, if they lived together, the spouse would realize if their partner liked to spend their entire weekend gaming. At least in that person's new place, they'll have plenty of room to build a gaming den for one.

After you check out these excellent break up stories, read about these people who had some tough days at work, like one person who revealed they "Just lost thousands of dollars worth of product at work. Most likely getting fired."
