Di ba po sa batas natin kapag ang mag asawa ay may pitong taon ng hiwalay at wala ng contact sa isa't isa, ito po ay maituturing ng walang bisa ang kasal? Ano po ba ang dapat gawin upang maidaan ito sa legal na paraan? Para mawalan na po ng habol sa isa't isa kung sakali.
Kapag hiwalay na ng pitong taon at wala ng contact, wala ng bisa kasal, di po ba?

Naku, you are misinformed. Ewan ko kung saan mo narinig iyan. That is wrong.
Una walang expiry date ang contract of marriage. Tignan mo sa NSO copy ng marriage contract mo. May nakikita ka bang expiry date? Wala. Kasi nga, ang kasal ay, till death do us part. Pilipinas lang at Vatican State ang tanging mga bansa sa buong mundo na walang diborsiyo. Kaya, kapag kasal ka, kasal ka na for life liban na lamang kung ikaw ay makakapag-pa-annul ng inyong kasal.
Second, kahit na maghiwalay pa kayo at ang isa sa inyo ay pumunta sa planetang Pluto, basta't buhay pa kayo, kasal pa rin kayo. Only death severs the marriage bond sa Pilipinas. Ang decree of annulment does not sever the marriage bond, it means there was no real marriage to speak of, kaya nga "null" ibig sabihin, walang bisa, walang kasal na naganap.
Third, kahit na fifty years pa kayo separated, at kahit na hindi na kayo nagkikita, o nag-uusap kahit man lang sa Facebook, hindi pa rin mawawalang bisa ang inyong kasal just because hiwalay na kayo, kahit na ilang taon. Basta't buhay pa kayo at kayo'y hindi nagpapa-annul ng inyong kaso, you are married.
Our marriage laws are so strict, they are absurd, but, that is the law.
