[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, life is too short to be miserable. Divorce is so expensive because it is worth it.[/quote]Divorce doesn't necessarily end all misery. My husband's parents split when he was 18. They were shocked to realize that they had to split their holiday time, and that issue was exacerbated when he met me in college and then we had to split with my parents. They don't live in the same place, so they spend 3 out of 4 Christmases and Thanksgivings alone. When we had kids they were again shocked to have to split grand kid time. When we had the first grandbaby, it was a huge issue who got to visit first since both grandparents live far away and refuse to be in the same room with each other. They have to split the happy moments. It hurt them both all over again. Now, almost 20 years post divorce, they both have moved on to new lives, but in many ways they'll never really move past the divorce. It's still a source of hurt and unhappiness. [/quote]
