The Bright Side of Divorce

April 12, 2011 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

Divorce has a bright side: the opportunity to restart your life. As you detox and heal you may discover a better version of yourself than you have ever known. Here are some benefits of being one adult:

* Easy to get a table in a busy restaurant (or sit at the bar)
 

* Listen to any music and sing out loud
 

* Your time is your own
 

* Take as long as you want in the bathroom
 

* On your own schedule
 

* Opportunity to talk to strangers
 

* No influence of another opinion (get to know YOU)
 

* No compromise
 

* Conversation is replaced with reading, thinking, writing, etc.
 

* Cheaper
 

* You can stay or leave…it’s up to you
 

* People are generally more friendly to someone alone
 

* No small talk necessary (many couples don’t talk anyway)
 

* Losing your way leads to more adventure
 

* No expectation
 

* Only accountable to yourself
 

* Increases self reliance and trust
 

The list goes on…

Granted these are things you could have in a healthy relationship, but in the meantime!

Learn Grow Be
