Sometimes a good divorce is better than a bad marriage.
How Men (and Anyone Really) Can Get Financially Screwed In Divorce
You may have read my one piece about women who get financially screwed in divorce. You may even have read a critique that I got on Medium, which changed everything. It really made me think. I didn't want to upset anyone, so I decided to write an article to show that anyone can get screwed during a divorce. Both parties are going through this difficult time, and nobody ever really wins by the time that they are on the other side.

Chapter 3. I Believe in What IÂ See I'm not a very suspicious person. I believe in what I see and I have always believed in her before. I have not had reason to be suspicious of her because she was always a reliable person and always does what she says she should. I know everything about her, I thought. I usually thought so. But sometimes the doubts were there, I had to admit to myself

Married and Divorced In 6 Months
The day was so sweet like honey. The birds were chirping in Harlem, NY. I was with my best friend shopping for some crafts. We got a sewing machine and some fabric. She was learning to make dresses and clothes. Little did we know along our summer escapades that I would unknowingly run into my future husband.

Divorce is Not the End of the Road

5 Crucial Lessons to Make Your Blended Family a Success
I was 49 years old when I met my future with a new family, and wow, did it open up a whole new world to figure out. Two years after a tumultuous divorce, I began seeing a twice-divorced older man with three grown children. We were only dating for six weeks when his first grandchild was born.

I had no idea what my role was and how I should feel or act.

When you realize it's over
For twenty years, I waited for the day I could say "Thank God and Greyhound you're gone." No my marriage wasn't as bad as it could have been. It wasn't as good as it could have been either. The first indication that there would be problems was the age difference. My wife was older than I was by twelve years. She also had a child from her first marriage which complicated things a little.
