Things About Divorce Only Divorced People Know

 Posted on December 00, 0000 in Divorce

There are a lot of people out there who claim to be experts on a wide variety of matters. The truth is that more times than not, the most knowledgeable person on any issue is the one who has lived the experience. This holds for divorce, as there are certain things about ending your marriage and living as a divorced adult that only those who preceded you really understand.

Been There, Done That

It is no secret that even just considering a divorce is something that weighs heavily on one’s mind, as the lasting implications affect more than just the married couple and more than just the immediate household. Here is a list of issues that come with a divorce, from those who went through the process:

• You will feel happy. This is true. It may seem odd now, but you will experience some amount of joy in your life despite the devastating effects of divorce.
• Even the smallest, most inexpensive trinket from your life as a couple will carry some meaning.
• You may detest someone you once loved with intense passion. Hope for an amicable divorce, but something less than pleasant may occur.
• Catching others whispering or exchanging a private conversation will make you feel self-conscious. You will wonder if they are talking about you, your ex-spouse or your divorce.
• Single parenting is very difficult. Only those who have done it know the real challenges.
• You will experience a wide range of emotions over the first six months. You will feel lonely, invigorated, tired and more, sometimes even on the same day.
• Watching someone pack up and move out can be surreal. Saying goodbye is one thing, witnessing the finality of your marriage is on a different level.
• Kissing someone new for the first time will be both weird and wonderful. You may experience an anxiety not previously felt.
• Telling your parents that you are divorcing can make you feel incredibly vulnerable.
• Starting over is a frightening prospect, but a new beginning will feel incredibly invigorating.
