Whereas in other life simulations, divorce is an easy option, and players can simply do it and move on with their lives, that is not the case in a Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life marriage. The only way to initiate the closest thing to a divorce is to completely ignore all responsibilities. Players must ignore their farming responsibilities and completely disregard their families.

To go through with the divorce, keep selecting the options that indicate no interest in the farm.

While this is a divorce initiation, it is also the end of the game. At that point, players will need to start over and try again.
