[quote=Anonymous]My DH’s friends who have divorced are rich.

The others we know are well-off but only barely. On our block, 3 of 8 houses and 4 families had post-pandemic divorces (one house had 2 sets of successive residents divorce- bad energy!). We live in the less expensive edge of a very expensive neighborhood. Our street is one that people end up on when they are stretching to squeak into the neighborhood and is way less nice than the rest of it. My pet theory is that families who end up on it are already stretched and anxious about accessing better resources, but the pressure of being part of a neighborhood where everyone else has nicer and more can really break someone’s confidence as well as a couple’s relationship. It used the be a starter house block for the fancy neighborhood and people would move to the nice part after a few years. Now the gulf between prices is so wide as so make it impossible. Being content in a 1500 sq ft house with street parking near a commercial strip and busy intersections when the rest of the school zone has 4000 sq ft houses with waterfront or views and sport courts and driveways isn’t easy on a family.[/quote]
