Sadly, the story is all too common: Instead of \"happily ever after,\" a couple is torn apart by an affair or financial troubles, and the two turn to a divorce as a quick solution to a messy problem. As the marriage ends, both parties end up paying a high cost both financially and emotionally.
Nowadays, divorce is so common that it's almost a household name. A divorce differs from an annulment in a way that divorce means an ending of marriage before death of either spouse while an annulment is a declaration making the marriage null and void in the first place.
Some married couples see divorce as a \"magic wand\" to solve the problems, whatever they may be, in their relationship, but sadly many choose this step without realizing the high price each pays, both in terms of money and hurt feelings.
Many people think a divorce will be over and done with quickly, and they can move on with their lives in little or no time. However, this is an misunderstanding of the complexity of the issue at hand; the average divorce usually takes about two years from beginning to end.
Also, while the price of a divorce lawyer ranges widely, most experts would say that the average lies around $3,000 each for a one-day trial; again, more than many people would expect.
Also, many people about to go through a divorce often underestimate the cost of splitting up that doesn't appear at first glance. New mortgage payments or rent, a change in car or health insurance, the cost of a move to a new city or region, and of course child support or alimony, can all make a divorce a very costly thing to endure financially.
Then there's the emotional cost of the whole ordeal that could lead to serious psychological problems. Divorce process encourages the focus of the past. Past mistakes, past problems and past disagreements. This diverts the attention of the present, resulting both parties slide to deeper anger and discontent with each other, reinforcing the problem rather than finding a solution.
Throughout the divorce process, each party will also likely feel a need to blame the other, reinforcing the sense of wrongdoing and victimhood. Instead of taking responsibility to fix the problem, a divorce encourages a person to place the blame for the marital stress on the other person. This could lead to a feeling of not being able to do anything about, helplessness, and all too often, clinical depression.
