Are you sick of your ex having the upper hand and dictating your life? Are the little annoyances and big disasters beginning to bug you? Don’t you wish you could just forget you even have an ex? It is about time you and your ex went separate ways and stopped battling over money, assets, and custody. But how can you when your ex drags you back in to court, bad mouths you in front of your kids, and bickers over incidentals? How can you stop the badgering and get on with your life?
It is about time you started looking out for number one. Life after divorce does not have to include battling over custody, bickering about assets, and fretting about the future. The best way to look out for number one is to know what your options are, prioritize them, and negotiate to win with a cleverly devised strategic plan of action. The problem is that emotions get in our way and prevent us from acting logical. Stress, depression, frustration, and anxiety take hold. This emotional stress does more than deprive people of happiness. It has physical side effects that have been proven to actually make people sick.
Therefore, there is no time to lick your wounds or wallow in self-pity. The marriage (or relationship) is over and if you do not want to kowtow to your ex (or your lover’s ex) for the rest of your natural life than you need to start looking out for number one. All the reasons that you got divorced will help you to figure out how to get your ex to give in or (better yet) cave in. It is time to move on and take action. It is not revenge that you seek. It is justice and peace of mind that we all seek.
