Why? Why should the state intervene in your relationship, or lack there of?
Why should the tax payer fund prison sentences for people who clearly weren't happy anyway?
Why do you need the threat of prison to keep a partner?

True
Though the point still stands - it wasnt a happy relationship in the first place.
