What is the best way to deal with a divorce from your wife? How to painlessly survive a divorce from your wife, if you still love: advice from a psychologist. How long do men go through a divorce, and is this process difficult for a man

Has it ever occurred to you that in the words of the heroine Inna Churikova, who once complained in an old, still Soviet film, they say, what a meanness, a woman after a divorce is called abandoned, and a man free ?! - Is there a bitter truth ... for men? As if they are denied the manifestation of feelings after a break with a loved one. A stereotype is firmly hammered into our heads: worrying and crying into a pillow is the lot of the fair sex. A guy just needs to get drunk a couple of times with friends, and you're done. Cheerful and fresh, like a young cucumber! And only those who themselves went through a divorce with their wife and survived it, know what it is.

Who is to blame and what to do?

Sad situation: at least 50% of weddings these days end in divorce

There are many reasons for people to break up. But it never happens, except in the rarest cases, that all the blame for a divorce lies with only one of the spouses. This is in case you are now wondering what was wrong, and why the missus preferred freedom to life next to you. If you can evaluate your actions impartially, you will surely remember more than a dozen bells that warned of an impending disaster.

Has your wife complained about your lack of attention?
To the complete lack of romance in gray everyday life?
To the rubble of homework that never ends?
Have you spoiled her with compliments, praise, small gifts like a bouquet of wildflowers or heart-shaped chocolates?
Did they listen to her requests not to lay out picturesque monograms of socks around the house, not to smoke in the kitchen, not to spank around the apartment in street shoes?
How often did you leave your beloved to sour alone in an empty apartment, devoting the weekend to fishing, football and other activities so dear to the male heart?

If all this took place, and was safely passed by your ears, you did not catch your calls. We are not talking about this so that you realize your guilt before your ex-wife, sprinkle ashes on your head and retire to the desert, but to clarify: before collapsing, the marriage cracks and staggers for some time. If a husband and wife are attentive enough to each other, they hear this crackle and take action in time. If not, then together they cut the branch on which they were going to twist their family nest and raise offspring. Therefore, it will not hurt to analyze the situation and understand what is your fault, and where is the fault of your spouse. This will allow you to avoid mistakes in the future, when passions subside, and you will be ready for a new relationship. If you put all the blame for what happened on your spouse, the next time you step on the same rake again. Contrary to the horror stories that men's forums are full of, couples "loving, caring, Ideal husband"and" stupid, greedy, selfish bitch-wife "are practically never found in life.

But that's later. And now, while cats are scratching your soul, you have one task: to survive the divorce as easily and painlessly as possible.

Who said that men don't suffer after a breakup?!

Anyone who believes that the stronger sex comes out of a relationship at worst with slightly frayed nerves knows nothing about him. The male soul is sometimes shaken by such cataclysms that the pain from them can be felt physically. Women in this regard are more fortunate: increased emotionality is their curse, but also their own outlet. A divorced wife can cry, roll on the floor in hysterics, tear her hair out, and no one will blame her for this, because the poor thing is so bad! A husband who drops a mean tear into a glass of vodka will only receive a friendly tap on the shoulder and advice not to become limp. The whole trouble is that boys are taught from childhood: men don't cry. And then we get whole crowds of people who do not know how to express their emotions. Which, by the way, is extremely harmful not only for mental well-being, but also for physical health. No wonder sensitive ladies, according to statistics, live a couple of decades longer than restrained men! Error: withdraw into yourself, be silent and try to cope with the pain alone. Such behavior is fraught with a nervous breakdown and deep depression. Good idea: find a way to express emotions. There is a need to cry - cry. Once or twice this is not forbidden even to brutal men. I want to scream - go out into nature, away from prying ears, and yell until your throat hurts. If you want to blow off steam, buy a punching bag and beat it until it feels better. It is best to do this not alone, but in the company of a friend who will listen to you, understand and support you, without issuing stamped slogans from the series “You are a man” and “Get together, rag.” This is not what you need now. If there is absolutely no one to talk to, sign up for a session with a psychologist. Firstly, you can be completely frank with him, since it is always easier to talk with a stranger than with a well-known person. Second, get useful advice, which is quite a lot.
You can talk to a specialist about your problems without fear of judgment

How the right way pour grief men have enjoyed since time immemorial? That's right, alcohol. True, this “psychologist” in a bottle makes you pay for his consultation with a headache and a hangover, and sometimes with increased aggression, memory lapses and suicidal thoughts. Error: embark on a pilgrimage to nearby clubs and taverns in search of peace of mind. Somehow, sooner or later you will find yourself violently kicking the door of your ex-wife or you will get into a worse situation. Good idea: find something useful to do. Hobbies, travel and meetings with friends will help you to get distracted without risking to personally meet the well-known "squirrel", provided that they do not roll into banal booze. It is even more desirable to set a specific goal, the achievement of which will require serious efforts, and systematically go towards it. For example, to rise to the next career step within six months. Or turn your cluttered garage into an exemplary one in a couple of weeks. Or ... Think for yourself what you have been planning to do for a long time, but never got around to it.

Try to find an activity that does not require privacy. Most likely, now you don’t want to meet with anyone at all, but you will have to make an effort on yourself. Avoid loneliness, in peace and quiet, the temptation is too great to hit memories and soul-searching again.

Some men, after a divorce, get into the “I didn’t really need you” position and set off in search of the next girlfriend. Early! It is extremely difficult to establish successful relationships until the old ones have finally receded into the past. You will inevitably begin to compare the new woman with the previous one and either find non-existent flaws in her - if you still love your wife - or idealize her if you parted with your wife badly. In any case, the hasty romance will not end with anything but a new break. Unless you're very lucky. Error: start a relationship in spite of his wife. Spoil the life of both yourself and your new passion, which in this situation will become an innocent victim of your showdown with the former. Good idea: temporarily limit contacts with the female sex, except for purely friendly and business. You don't have to go celibate, but it certainly doesn't hurt to take a break.
Give yourself time to let your emotions cool down and your soul calm down.
There are husbands who simply deny the fact that everything is over between him and his wife. Even an official notice of divorce does not make them come to terms with reality, because such a man is sure that if he makes an effort, his wife will come to her senses.

Error: continue to pursue the former soul mate, give her gifts, shower her with messages of love, involve her parents and friends of her wife in the cause and watch for her at the entrance.

Good idea: admit that your family boat has crashed against the rocks with a roar, let your spouse go in peace and set off under a new sail towards your future happiness.

To make it easier for yourself, remove from the house all the things left by your wife, as well as your common photos and small souvenirs: magnets from joint trips, personalized key rings, mugs. Clear your house of memories, otherwise your parting will be long and painful.
If a woman initiates a divorce, male pride gets a noticeable kick. Just a scar! I just want to remember to the “traitor” all the jambs committed by her in family life, to sting with a poisonous word, to do something nasty ...

Error: go into open conflict with ex-wife, rinse the name of the spouse at all intersections and accuse her of the seven deadly sins.

good idea: try to maintain the best possible relationship with the woman you once fell in love with. Who knows how life will turn out? Perhaps someday one of you will render another a serious service! If the lady herself tries to make a scandal, keep aloof and cool. Respect yourself.

Bonus: little psychological trick to get out of the blue as soon as possible. Take a sheet of paper and describe in detail on it all the advantages of your single existence, and then put the sheet in a conspicuous place. In the following days, do not forget to reread and supplement your list from time to time until the pros in your subconscious mind outweigh the cons of divorce.

Have you heard a fairy tale about a prince who lived happily ever after, fished for pleasure, drank liters of beer, laid out socks and gobies where he wanted, freely communicated with friends, had reckless romances - and all thanks to the princess, who refused him in time? As they say, a fairy tale is a lie, but in it ... well, you know.

Maybe you gained more from divorce than you lost?

Additional difficulties

If the separation of a young, not burdened by children, mortgages and other circumstances that make divorce difficult for a couple is in itself a difficult period in life, then it is doubly difficult to scatter, having all this in the anamnesis.

If you have common children

A wife, even a dearly loved one, can be forgotten over time, deleted from life and learn to perceive her as a stranger. But the children will be yours forever. Do not want your child to become half an orphan with a living father? Don't let things go by themselves.

Resolve financial issues as soon as possible. If you disagree with your spouse with a scandal, you will be tempted to do everything to leave the former with a nose. But before you succumb to the temptation, remember that in this case you will deprive your child of some material wealth, who in most cases stays with his mother. So cool down, honestly estimate the amount of financial assistance that you will be able to provide to your child - we emphasize once again, the child, not the wife! - consult with a lawyer and go to the world. No matter how much bitterness and pain you feel towards your spouse, they do not release you from responsibility to your children.
Decide right away where, when, and how you will see your child. With a more or less peaceful separation, the solution to this issue does not require serious efforts - not a single reasonable woman will deprive her children of the opportunity to see their father. Alas, divorce and division of property rarely force people to show their best qualities: it is no secret how often offended wives try to use a child to blackmail and manipulate their ex-husband. Here you can only be advised to arm yourself with patience, enlist the support of a good lawyer and enforce your paternal rights. Better than the world, and if the spouse bites the bit, then through the court.
When meeting with children, do not speak ill of the mother to them, even if you know that she often allows herself harsh remarks about you. It will be bad for your child first of all. Try to convey to the child: dad will now have to live separately, but he will always love you and take care of you. And if the father at the same time does not disappear in an unknown direction, but, on the contrary, will constantly find an opportunity for communication and show his love, over time the child himself will draw the necessary conclusions.

Don't let divorce separate you from your children

If the ex-wife remarries

Coming to terms with the loss of a beloved woman is one thing, but watching her walk down the aisle with a new chosen one just a few weeks after a divorce is quite another. Usually, by this time, the wounds inflicted by parting have not yet had time to heal. You continue to subconsciously consider your wife who has flown away from the family nest as yours, are interested in the details of her personal life, and maybe even cherish the dream of reunion. And then such a blow!

Do whatever it takes to break the bonds that bind you. Do not try to find out what is happening on the personal front of the ex-girlfriend - this does not concern you anymore. Do not ask mutual friends yourself and decisively cut off gossips who are always ready to convey to your husband fresh information about the adventures of his former half. A short "I'm not interested" is enough to discourage talkers from enlightening you.
Change the environment. Moreover, a trip to a resort or a village will not help you: a person lying in the sun and picking mushrooms in the forest has too much free time to think. But rafting down the river in kayaks or vigorous climbing into the mountains with a backpack over your shoulders, where during the day you will be busy every minute overcoming large and small obstacles, and in the evening you will begin to fall asleep in a dead sleep - that's what you need!
Communicate more. But only in companies where alcohol will not be at the forefront. Play paintball? Wonderful! Help with the repair of the apartment of a friend? I'm on my way! Design an aircraft with friends, with which at the next competition Red Bull you proudly dive into the water to the applause and hooting of enthusiastic spectators? Give me two! Find a way to keep yourself occupied, and very soon you will begin to notice that the image of the former leaves your sphere of interest.

Faithful friends and an interesting activity - the surest remedy for the blues

If a new man appeared with his wife even before the dissolution of the marriage, that is, you became a victim of a banal betrayal, the main task is not to get angry at the entire female sex at once. Man is a social being. Very few of us are able to live alone and feel great about it; Most people need a partner to live. And even if you are definitely not in a relationship right now, over time the situation will certainly change. In order not to complicate your future searches with a biased attitude towards all women in the world, complete the betrayal story right now: forgive your wife. Not in the sense of “forgive and accept back” - since the divorce has already occurred, from this side you, apparently, have decided everything for yourself. Just do everything to get over yourself negative feelings to the former. The recipe is the same: true friends, activity and time. By the way, communication with representatives of the opposite sex, whom you do not regard as sexual partners, helps a lot. Surely in your company there are such?

If you are no longer young

Radically changing your lifestyle when you are over 50 is both scary and difficult. By this age, children have already grown up and live separately from their parents, a career does not entail sky-high heights, but there is an established way of life, traditions and habits, the breaking of which causes serious discomfort.

Look at the situation differently. Since it came to a divorce at your age, it means that your wife did not succeed in establishing warm, trusting relationships in the family. Perhaps the marriage was based on children. Perhaps fear of change. But be that as it may, but now this thin thread has broken and you have found that nothing binds you. So enjoy the opportunity to take a break from each other! Let your wife go and let her and yourself enjoy life separately. Fortunately, now you do not need to provide for disabled children and put all your strength into worries about the future! Choose a new goal according to your interests and start implementing it. Do what you want; build your life the way you want; plan the future, with an eye only to your wishes. What if this is your chance to find your true happiness?

For a husband who relied entirely on his wife for domestic issues, the need to cook for yourself, as well as washing, cleaning, shopping and paying utility bills will be a serious test. You have to master these tricky sciences. But you will have less time for self-pity and more reasons for self-respect. deal with washing machine and learning how to cook pork in a pot after 50 is a major achievement.

Even at a respectable age, divorce does not mean the end of life

How to survive a divorce from your beloved wife: reviews of men

I went through a divorce last year. In fact, he hasn't survived yet. I still remember several times a day. That's what I figured out ... Booze does not help at all, on the contrary, it spoils everything. Sports are incredibly helpful. Positive emotions help. Traveling helps, but not alone. The proverb “It is better to do and regret than not do and regret that you did not do it” helps.

withheld

I would start going to the gym. Set a goal for yourself, like a 180 bench press, and pound-pound-pound the pieces of iron until they submit.

My advice: all the things that connected you, down to the smallest detail, shower gels, candles there ... throw everything away or hide it far and for a long time. Yes, and try not to be idle and alone for a long time ... Friends still save a lot, not in terms of sex - this is, of course, a personal matter for everyone. I'm not particularly a supporter of this, it's just that communication with the opposite sex is very distracting.

Time cures. I went through the same thing, it was hard. I went headlong into work, it helped.

It will hurt for a long time, but if you learn how to use this pain correctly, you will still be grateful to fate for everything that happened. The behavior of people who cruelly betray, use those who love them, for me, for example, is inexplicable, and I don’t even want to understand it. But I have learned to forgive. And forget... Be patient, look for strength in faith, in relatives and friends. Everything will definitely work out.

The task of adults is to explain what is happening. The father did not abandon the child. Beloved man will continue to take part in the life of the baby, attend birthdays, make gifts. The difference is that the man lives separately. There is no way to painlessly survive a divorce. Spouses are able to reduce the impact of the consequences of separation.

On the stress level scale, the situation of conflict and divorce with a partner is in second place. Both women and men suffer from the experience. How to survive a divorce from your wife? If the situation is complicated by treason, the division of property - a man becomes very vulnerable. The most difficult thing is the realization that love has not yet passed. Divorce from a loved one is a strong emotional crisis. So how do you get over a breakup with the woman you love?

Stages of experience

Divorce is usually preceded by a conflict stage. The man found out about the betrayal, the wife decided to leave because of financial difficulties, the conflict lasted a very long time. The first reaction of a man going through a divorce is usually associated with psychological defense: "It will still be fine."

Psychologists call this reaction an escape from reality, an avoidance of a problem situation. The main stages of experience:

Denial flows into an aggressive attitude towards a partner. In especially severe cases, ugly scandals begin, other people, children are involved in the conflict. If the wife left for another, then there is a feeling of anger, hatred, a desire to infringe. Moreover, these feelings smoothly flow into painful love.
When the fact of leaving is confirmed, then after realizing the problem, methods of psychological influence begin. Used manipulation, bribery, the threat of children, blackmail. Psychologists are sure that this is a road to nowhere and such methods do not help to survive parting with his wife. At this stage, it can be difficult to leave, spouses can start a relationship again, try to save the marriage.
The penultimate stage is depression. A man feels the pain of loss, his self-esteem decreases, there is fear. Sometimes the pain is drowned out by alcohol, someone goes to work, tries to reduce the pain of separation by talking with friends and relatives. The behavior of abandoned men depends on temperament and character.
There is also the last stage - the acceptance of the fact of divorce and the departure of a woman. This is the stage of adaptation, coming to life, focusing on a new life. But how to survive a divorce from your wife and come with dignity to the last stage? Are there any methods and ways?

How can a man survive a divorce? Expert advice:

Do not use children for divorce problems. For children, divorce becomes a very painful story, as the world with mom and dad is collapsing. Do not drag the child to your side, do not speak badly about your wife. Let the divorce become only your problem with your wife.
The natural reaction is resentment and anger. It should not be contained, but should be released in a constructive manner. Physical exercises, kayaking, motorcycle riding master class. What have you always dreamed of? Take pictures, shoot at targets, go fishing in an unusual place? Release your anger with new deeds and worries.
If there are suicidal thoughts, symptoms of depression, insomnia, then you should consult a psychotherapist. It is very difficult for men to do this, but the statistics of practitioners say that men often do not know how to survive the departure of their wife, they need outside help.
Look for the good in the current situation. Yes, you broke up, joined the club of divorced. If you still love, it seems that there is no worse situation. Try writing a letter to the future. What will be good for you in a year, three, five years?

What not to do?

Wash down grief with alcohol. Breaking up is always hard, but alcohol will give temporary relief or aggravate the condition.
Blackmail his wife, take revenge, promise "mountains of gold."
No need to cultivate a sense of guilt and inferiority. If you think that you are guilty of something before your spouse, then ask for forgiveness. But you need to understand that an apology cannot persuade a person to change his intention to leave.
In a state of mental pain, important decisions should not be made. They can be impulsive and harm you.

My history

Oleg, 41 years old

“My wife and I lived for 15 years. We had a daughter, we worked, we were going to buy a new car. I can’t say that everything went smoothly with us, but there were no special conflicts in the relationship. I won't say how, but I found out about my wife's infidelities. The first reaction is shock. What to do? Get a divorce? But what about the daughter? She is 11 years old, she needs both parents. After long conversations with my wife, a decision came to me. Continue the previous family life I can't, but we have a daughter. We are responsible for her upbringing, she should not suffer because of us.

Igor, 30 years old

“Three years after the wedding, my wife left me. She decided to get divorced because of my character. She said that I was soft-bodied, purposeless, I had no ambitions.

According to statistics, in 63% of cases, the initiators of divorce are women. For this reason, many men rarely experience the hard end of family relationships, despite the fact that outwardly these experiences are not noticeable. This leads to the fact that many men are really concerned about the question: how to survive a divorce from a wife with minimal negative emotions and problems. In addition, some families have a child. In such a situation, the father will have to learn to see the child less often, to communicate with him in a different way. In general, there are a lot of questions.

Features of the behavior of a man when he gets divorced

Men who need to go through a divorce from their wife behave very differently than women. Basically, their behavior is characterized by three features:

Most divorced men, as they say, withdraw into themselves. They plunge headlong into introspection, reflect on what was done wrong, how to survive a breakup with a woman, often such men lose their self-confidence. Such experiences are a sign of the pain of a breakup, the preservation of a man's feelings towards a woman with whom he has lived for a certain time.
Some men behave just the opposite. They begin to flaunt their freedom, behave defiantly, they can start drinking alcohol or even drugs, they say, now no one will forbid it. Often this behavior is accompanied by excessive activity in relation to the opposite sex - if a man divorced, he seeks to show his ex-wife that he can easily find a replacement for her, he is still popular and is a desirable object for many women.
Some men can continue the old way of life. They act as if nothing happened, they in a sense ignore the initiative of the ex-spouse to leave, because they do not know how to live after a divorce.

It must be remembered that a man's future relationships with other women will depend largely on how he experiences parting with his wife.

What to do if feelings persist?

So, in most cases, it is very difficult for men to survive a divorce from their wife, often this event is accompanied by depression. And according to appearance men understand that it is difficult for him, it is far from always possible. After all, most boys are told in childhood that crying and openly demonstrating their emotions is bad and not worthy. This is feminine, not masculine behavior. However, restraining oneself, experiencing troubles inside, leads not only to nervous diseases, but also to problems in future relationships.

A constructive analysis of the reasons that led to the breakdown of family relations helps to avoid such problems. Under the constructive this case is understood as an analysis that leads not only to an understanding of the causes, but also to an understanding of the way to survive parting with his wife. Often introspection leads to self-pity, the desire to talk with friends, drink alcohol to forget. If feelings persist, and there is a desire to return to the family, it is much more effective to think about how to do this and start implementing the plan. The appearance of a goal will distract a worried man from problems and give strength to restore relationships.

It is also very helpful not to lose contact with your ex-wife. Divorce does not mean ending communication. Therefore, psychologists recommend periodically communicating, being interested in the life of a spouse, even if they divorced a long time ago, strive to understand her and support her if necessary. These are also stages of the journey to restore relationships.

How to survive the betrayal of his wife?

Often a man does not know what to do if his wife left him. For a man, this is a blow to his self-esteem, pride. He perceives betrayal not only as a betrayal, but also as the fact that a woman preferred him to another. Some do not even know how to live after such an event.

In such a situation, there may be several tips:

The first is not to hold back. Of course, any man is an owner. It is difficult for him to come to terms with the fact that his woman will be with another. So he tries his best to stop her. But you should not do this. Here the laws of physics come into play - for every action there is a reaction with the same force. Therefore, it is better to let go, come to terms with the fact of leaving and continue your normal life. It is highly likely that soon there will be another girl in place of his wife.
The second is to forgive. This is quite difficult to do, because treason is a betrayal. But forgiveness is an opportunity to stop experiencing negative emotions. Recognition of the wife’s choice, internally allowing her to behave as she sees fit, will help the man himself to quickly cope with the situation and find new companion in life, taking into account the mistakes already made.
The third is to find a congenial person with whom it will be pleasant to communicate. Preferably it should be a girl. However, you should not wash the bones of your ex-wife with her - for the girl this will be a sign that the man's feelings have not cooled down yet. Therefore, it is better to find a joint hobby, visit theaters, museums, go on a trip. This will allow you to be distracted and quickly forget about the break with your wife.

What to do if there are children?

In most cases, after separation from the wife, the children remain with the spouse. Such a decision can be made both by agreement of a man and a woman, and by a court decision (established practice). As a result, the dad has the opportunity to meet with the children on certain days, or he becomes only a sponsor - he transfers funds to the ex-wife for the maintenance of the children, and this is where the relationship ends. This way of communicating with children negatively affects not only the children, but also the emotional state of the father himself.

To avoid serious problems, it is necessary to decide in advance how to behave with children. In particular, it is desirable not to involve children in a divorce situation, and also to discuss how to help a son or daughter in the future. It is recommended not to discuss the division of property, their own relationship of spouses with children. Children should be explained as simply and in detail as possible that dad, after he lives separately, will not love them less. He can always come to the rescue, support, and communication definitely should not be less. Moreover, a man can much more easily endure a divorce from his wife if warm and good relations with children are maintained, and mutual understanding with them is not lost.

Competent specialists who provide assistance to men in stressful situations, including when breaking up with his wife, have formulated several tips:

First of all, efforts must be made to maintain neutral or even friendly relations with the ex-wife. Such relationships, firstly, will allow you to survive the divorce quite calmly, maintain constructive communication, which means, if necessary, will simplify obtaining permission to meet with children.
Communicate with loved ones. Many abandoned men withdraw into themselves in a problem situation, minimize communication with everyone. But it is not always possible to cope with protracted depression alone, so psychologists recommend behaving in the exact opposite way. It is helpful to discuss the situation with friends or relatives. This will allow you to speak out, relieve stress. In addition, by talking and discussing the situation, there may be some way out, which will also make it easier to experience a break with your spouse.
Continue to achieve your life goals and objectives. A divorce from a wife is not a reason to put an end to a career or business. You need to keep on living. Concentrating on work or hobbies, on the contrary, will distract from unpleasant thoughts and make it easier to survive an unpleasant event.
Take a break before starting a new relationship. Emotions will calm down a bit, the situation of divorce can be treated more simply, the experience of experiencing stress will appear. After that, you can build new relationships.

But what definitely should not be done is to abuse alcohol. Against the background of stress, this can quickly develop into a habit, which will be very difficult to get rid of.

The third common mistake is a special provocation of conflict situations with a spouse. Often it is allowed if the wife lives nearby after a divorce, since it is more difficult for a man to deal with negative emotions at the sight of a once beloved woman. As a result, relations worsen even more, mutual insults and humiliation occur. If the spouses have children, this situation may adversely affect their upbringing, and the wife may well forbid ex-husband meet children. Thus, such behavior will not lead to anything good.
The hasty start of a new relationship. If a man quickly entered into a new relationship, they rarely end positively. Most often, they break quickly, because the man has not cooled down yet, and the girl may feel that she is needed just to forget her wife.

In fact, a man has the right to feel emotional depression, pain and despair on an equal basis with women.

Let go of each other.

Many break up, but at the same time they do not let each other go. For years, already in a new relationship, they experience resentment and pain from the past.

The hardest thing is if you have a child. in this situation - to discuss everything at the common table. The child is not to blame for the fact that your relationship fell apart, so make contact. Calling each other daily is overkill, maintaining an adequate relationship for the sake of the child is a duty. Forgive each other.

Throwing yourself into the pool with your head is bad advice.

Be aware of your feelings and emotions. Recognize that you feel bad and hurt. Go headlong into work, communicate more with family and friends. Engage in the search for new relationships when you say goodbye in your soul to the old ones.

Behave decently.

Emotions pass, but actions and words remain in memory. Having done a bunch of dirty tricks to an ex-lover, the relationship will deteriorate utterly. Probably, in a few years, when the emotions subside, you will be ashamed of your behavior in a fit of despair and anger.

How can a man survive a divorce? The psychologist advises to accept the situation. Give yourself time to realize what happened, and the pain to subside.

Children and parents' divorce

If for adults the divorce process is difficult, then for children it is a real tragedy. Particularly vulnerable ages are 5-10 years old and 12-16 years old. During these years, children especially vividly endure such an event. Tantrums begin, leaving home, ultimatums. if there is a child? You, as parents, should put aside each other's quarrels and sit down at a common table.

It is important to explain to the child:

You both love him. It is important to make it clear that you are not getting a divorce because of him, but because it will be better this way, emphasizing that you both loved him and you will always love him.
You will definitely see each other. Explain that mom and dad will now live in different places, but at his request and by personal agreement, he will be able to visit or live for some time with the second parent.
He is the best thing you have done for your marriage. It is important for the child to feel that he is not involved in your divorce. Unfortunately, most children develop a sense of guilt, which affects mental health.
You have to let go of each other for the sake of happiness. The problem with most parents is ignorance of their own children. It seems to them that since the child is under the age of 15, he is naive, he can lie or do without explanation, but this is a mistake. Children feel false, and when something happens in their family.

No need to get into the details of your breakup, just explain that if the two of you stop being happy together, they need to let go of each other in order to feel happy with someone else. Emphasize that happiness is the most important thing in life, so you, treating each other with warmth, disperse.

Humiliate the second parent and remember his sins. Your relationship is yours. The child is not to blame for your mutual decision. The kid loves two - mom and dad. Your divorce does not affect his love, but affects the psyche. If you push, then there are 3 scenarios: he will start to hate the second parent, he will start to hate you, he will feel abandoned. Why does the child need this burden? Be prudent.
Blame the child. Children already feel guilt on a subconscious level. If you help develop this sense of guilt, then as an adult, your child will not be able to stand up for himself and will endure humiliation. Do not relieve yourself of responsibility! The decision to have a child is a common one.
Discuss a new passion, if any. The child feels everything. Today you will say with a forced smile how you wish happiness to his mother or father, and tomorrow you will discuss a new passion with your friends in all negative colors. So the child will understand that he is being deceived and a trusting relationship with you will begin to collapse.

Of course, there may be deep anger and resentment, but leave all this talk to or a girlfriend without a child.

What to do if you divorce your husband if you have a child?

If the question arose about who the child should stay with, do not drag him into these questions, but simply ask directly: “Who do you like to live with more - with me or with dad?”. Don't be surprised if your child doesn't answer unequivocally.

Next, sit down at the negotiating table. There is no right or wrong choice in the matter of "separating" a child. For example, children often stay with their mothers, but not less often with their fathers. It depends on your standard of living, opportunities and personal affection. For example, if you have always stayed away from raising a child, then it is more logical to “give” him to the parent who has always been there.

Turn off your grievances and emotions, as we are talking about a living person. Be realistic and evaluate your strengths. If you do not feel responsible and understand that you are not ready to take the child, then you do not need to rewrite guardianship for yourself out of revenge.

How to survive the betrayal and divorce of a husband or wife: advice from a psychologist

"Men are goats! Everyone changes!” - such a stereotype is instilled in us through all series, films and books. As a rule, they show the worst scenarios and demonstrate the situation from such an angle, as if such an outcome is the only one. The reverse stereotype also works, but to a lesser extent, about women.

Of course, the perspective of attention is always on the traitors, and those who have been betrayed are portrayed as harmless martyrs, who, of course, have nothing to do with it. They are good and the best.

Such stereotypical behavior teaches you to blame, but not to pay attention to yourself. There is a category of men who are otherwise called womanizers, but this is noticeable at the first meeting and their betrayal is a common thing.

Even if your spouse said otherwise during a quarrel, do not believe it. You have the right to happiness, repeat this phrase like a mantra.

Change the image.

For emotional relief, we strongly advise you to visit the salon and do what you could not decide on for a long time. For example, all my life I wore long hair to the hips or have not changed their hairstyle in the last 10 years. Take it and do what you ever thought of!

Also throw away or sell old clothes and start updating your wardrobe. Don't be afraid to buy bright colors, bold styles and an unusual cut. Now you have new life where you allow yourself to be who you always wanted to be in your heart!

Sign up for courses.

Have you dreamed of learning English, learning to sew or dancing the tango? Welcome to the courses. A new activity will distract you from negative thoughts, and a new team will give you new acquaintances that will at least help you find new friends.

Erase the person from your life.

If he (a) is not going to take his things out of the apartment, then feel free to sell them or throw them away. Free up space, and you yourself will feel a surge of vitality.

Also delete all phone numbers, joint photos - everything that can remind you of daily

Make a change.

After betrayals and a high-profile divorce, a person finds himself at an emotional bottom. The home environment is pressing: you come, sit on the sofa and remember how you bought it together and collected it all evening.

You need to make a change. Ideally, change the color of the wallpaper and make a complete repair, at least - rearrange the furniture a little.

The advice of a psychologist when divorcing a husband, as a rule, comes down to self-analysis of a woman, you need to look at yourself and accept your mistakes, and not blindly blame your ex for cheating or leaving after many years of marriage.

Common reasons for cheating include:

Boredom.

A woman is not fond of anything, does not aspire anywhere, although she has developed before. Her whole life is life and children, if any. There is nothing to talk to her about, and constantly talking about the house is boring.

Those with whom you can feel new emotions and learn something new.

Unresolved conflicts.

The woman did not pay due, humiliated him or did not resolve conflicts. As a result of countless attempts to find a compromise, a man gets bored with a woman to such an extent that he wants to run away.

Laziness.

Married, the man saw beautiful woman. She put on makeup, loved to dance, took care of herself and constantly attracted the attention of everyone around. She was the sun that I wanted to look at. Over the years of marriage, the woman relaxed and began to be lazy - wearing baggy things, walking with an ugly hairstyle, stopped paying attention to her appearance. Men love with their eyes, so after many years of marriage, the man got tired of the huge pajamas and wanted to see the beauty. Note that men often pay attention not to incredible beauty, but to grooming.

Believe me, the fault in your gap is on you. Do not try to attribute everything to age, especially if the new passion of the former is much younger. A woman at 40 is an adult formed woman, not deprived of wisdom. By accepting responsibility for the breakup and working through personality problems with a specialist, you can find a new man.
