• that the Respondent has committed adultery; or
• that the Respondent has behaved in such a way that the Petitioner cannot reasonably be expected to live with the Respondent; or
• that the Respondent has deserted the Petitioner for a continuous period of at least two years immediately preceding the presentation of the petition; or
• that the parties to the marriage have not lived as man and wife for a continuous period of at least two years immediately preceding the presentation; or
• that the parties to the marriage have not lived as man and wife for a continuous period of at least five years immediately preceding the presentation of the petition; or
• that the parties to the marriage have, after diligent effort, been unable to reconcile their differences.

The most common way that people file for divorce is to petition the court  that the Respondent has behaved in such a way that the Petitioner cannot reasonably be expected to live with the Respondent.
