divorce
Divorce isn't an end; it's a different beginning.
What it's like to be divorced in your twenties.
I remember being sat where you are right now. My husband was on his second affair (he was an awful liar so it wasn't like he could ever hide it) and I was tired. There were so many complications. The house, the mortgage, the dogs. I couldn't have children and that is ultimately what broke us. My life was practically the narrative from "The Girl on the Train", well without the murder part but equally horrifying and depressing.

Red Light, Green Light
I remember playing games on the school field in middle school. “Red light! Green light!” All of us kids would be lined up on one end of the field, anxiously waiting for the green light, then dash across the field toward the “leader” in a desperate attempt to get to the other side before he called “red light!” When “green light” was shouted, I wouldn’t hesitate, I ran as fast as I could. I ran like my life depended on it to get to the other side. But I remember waiting, waiting on that red light. Waiting for the green light…so I could run!

This is 41
Life is not easy. I’m on the cusp of a second divorce, my kids are now adults, and I just started a new job in a new town. Seven years ago, I picked up and moved to another state giving up everything to marry the love of my life, or so I thought. Fast forward to 2018 and I found out he was cheating on me with a woman halfway across the world. I guess in his defense I found out about it because he ended it and she sought me out on Facebook to let me know what he had done. He was remorseful and seemed dedicated to working things out. Turns out he was only dedicated in going through the motions. We went to counseling where we were just spinning circles because he only heard what he wanted to hear from the therapist. What he really wanted to happen was we both pretend it never happened and sweep it under the rug. For the record, that is not how to handle things.

Gifts from my Father
I came home later than normal that night. Technically my curfew was 9:00 PM, but Mom said that I could stay out as long as I wanted. Which I appreciated, because it meant I wouldn't be in trouble, since I was staying out late no matter what she said. The last thing I wanted was to come home early and see my Dad packing up his things. Their divorce was hard enough, I didn't need the fact that my dad was moving across the country thrown in my face. So I stayed away.

DIVORCE IN INDIA: A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE
In many parts of the world, divorce is no longer stigmatised. This is also true for Indian couples, including non-resident Indians. The de-stigmatization of divorce has resulted in a more lenient approach for couples who seek to leave their partnership amicably. The concept of 'mutual divorce' helps with this.

When it All Comes Down
As with most stories that captivate the mind, there will not be some be lesson or moral to carry away from this; at least not in my mind. Instead perhaps you will be entertained for captivated for short time. Maybe your lunch break will pass a little faster. Or your mind will ponder these events as you lay down at night.

The Road To Happiness In Marriage
It is a well known fact that divorce is a lot less problematic when there aren't any children involved. You just split everything down the middle and go your separate ways. End of story. However, bring kids into the equation and everything changes, for the worst.

Taking the Lead and Being Aggressive In Divorce
Divorces can be a physically, mentally, emotionally and financially challenging journey. The process is known to take a toll on the person’s life. Although the process is torturous, it can free you from a toxic and unhappy marriage. There are two perspectives to deal with a divorce; some take it as a mission to seek revenge from their spouses during the process, while others believe to collaborate with their spouse to come out of it peacefully.
