What about divorce?

I've been married two times. The first one ended 13 years ago, and the second is just ending right now.
My first divorce was very hard and painfull.
Now, I think things will be bad too.
?Any advice?
Thanks.
 
Im 19 so obviously Iv never been divorced myself but Iv known many people and family friends who have been. No matter how it works theres a good chance that itll be rough. But keeping yourself occupied by doing things like going to the bar or other social events with your friends Id imagine would help. Maybe picking up some extra hours at work? Im sorry about the limited advice but Iv never been in that position myself.

I hope everything works out well!
 
I've never been divorced but I've thrown the paperwork at her when she was screaming at me.
If I were in your shoes (and I might be eventually) I would take a hard look at myself to figure out what went wrong.
It might be hard to figure it out on your own but if you have a close friend that will be honest with you then you might get the answer. The reason of course is so if you ever decide to go into relationship #3 you can do so without past baggage and it might help you choose better next time.
If you can save this one I think you should try.
 
I have been married for 22 years and am going to get a divorce. This is my only marriage and I thought it was forever. Our only son is ADD and ASD just like me. I think my wife just could not deal with two of us. I really like my wife and respect her but we do not get along anymore. The divorce is my idea and she is OK with it. Why stay married if you just argue all the time and push each other's buttons? I look forward to having my freedom again. I'm not sure that is much comfort to you and you have my sympathy. Long ago I felt the grief of breaking up long-term relationships and there was nothing that could heal it but time.
