When you receive notice that your divorce has been granted, don't spend the rest of the day alone. Whether you hear it in the courtroom, on a phone call from your attorney, or read a snail-mail notification, you may feel like you're suddenly different.
You might have been the "leaver" or the "left." Either way, there will likely be a feeling of loss, emptiness, or something nameless but sad. Sure, it's a beginning. But it's also an ending.
Get together with a friend or two. You can even ask in advance if they'd like to join you after you get the news, just to hang out. Call it a celebration or just friend time. It's many things all rolled into one.
I didn't know that and went out to eat by myself. That's not unusual. But on that night, I wished I'd been with a friend or two.
Peace ~
