Getting back in the game after a divorce can be incredibly challenging for people who’re filled with self-doubt. Divorce has a way of crushing your self-esteem, and the idea of getting into a new relationship can be nerve-wracking.
That being said, some experts believe that relationships after a divorce are usually a lot better than earlier ones.
Let’s look at some of the reasons for this:
No parent is happy at the prospect of having to tell their kids that their marriage is ending. Unfortunately, around 40–50% of couples in the US have to do just that.
Although there’s no easy way to announce a divorce to your kids, you can do it in a way that prevents angry outbursts and helps them see your side of things.
Here are some tips on speaking to your kids about divorce:
You can’t imagine your life without your partner. Almost every couple experiences arguments and conflicts.
Most adults can accept when they’re wrong and are willing to make changes that help them become better people, but there are also those who can’t take criticism at all.
When you try to get them to see your side, they manipulate the situation to make you seem wrong (even though you’re not and you know it!).
People who always have to be right are incredibly challenging to live with. You’ll find yourself walking on eggshells around them. They’ll test your patience, cause you immense frustration, and you’ll soon resort to keeping things to yourself instead of attempting to talk to them.
All of these issues are a breeding ground for problems in any relationship.
So how do you live with someone who always thinks they’re right?
Before we get to that, you first need to understand why people behave this way.
Both men and women engage in infidelity at similar rates.
Whether your goal is to find a new sense of value in your motives and abilities; or to use couples therapy to improve communication between yourself and your spouse, I can help start the healing process.
