Divorce Don'ts


Healthy Divorcee's say 'No' to the following:

  • Blaming your 'X'
  • Blaming yourself
  • Dating online
  • Re-marrying too soon (especially to someone you met online)
  • Destroying old photos (you will regret this)
  • Badmouthing your X to your children (if you have them)
  • Starting every sentence with 'my X' when talking to friends (you're hurt, we get it, now get over it, nobody wants to hear the broken record)
  • Searching for a pill or drink that will numb the pain or loneliness you feel (this won''t make it go away, it just creates a whole new problem)

Visit some of the posts here on Divorce Dazed and try to find solace in the fact that many of us have been where you're at...it's no picnic, for sure. But the good news is, as time passes, the pain will lessen, and the sun truly will shine again.

Many wonderful opportunities come to us disguised as bad events.

Don't lose hope.
