There will be possibilities of disagreement over money and division of properties, in such a way that couples may be seen and heard hurting each other because of the things I mentioned. That's why there's a need to <a href="http://www.compellingcounsel.com/family_law/" rel="nofollow">Ottawa family lawyers</a>. I'm talking about this because my sister just filed a divorce case against his idling and irresponsible husband. I can imagine the pressure and pain she is enduring because of that while she's with us here in <a href="http://www.compellingcounsel.com/" rel="nofollow">Ottawa. Lawyers</a> are her guide in facing the said legal battle against the man she once loved, the father of her kids. Indeed, it's heartbreaking.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03116244207804714232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988275145038032119.post-6342038189280018022011-01-16T23:27:50.412-07:002011-01-16T23:27:50.412-07:00Have had 2 friend couples divorce in the past year...Have had 2 friend couples divorce in the past year.

It is incredibly difficult to witness, and I find myself never knowing what to say.

Thank you for the reminder to treasure what we have.<br /><br />I'll be praying for the couple.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309241540221272766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988275145038032119.post-20537165202691563442011-01-13T11:45:39.993-07:002011-01-13T11:45:39.993-07:00We've been married 12 1/2 years now and my hus...We've been married 12 1/2 years now and my husband's sister got divorced 2 years ago after 7 years oa marriage. I just found out that my dearest friend is divorcing as well.<br /><br />It breaks my heart. I don't know how to help and I certainly don't want to hurt. <br /><br />I guess when things are mostly good, it's hard to understand how things can get so bad. We also went in to this with the idea that divorce is not an option (excecpt in cases of abuse). I think that helps too. The number of marriages performed at our church took a drastic drop when our pastors took a harder stance on marrying poeple who thing they can just divorce if things get rough. <br /><br />I guess I'm just at a loss of what to do too. Keep praying and let Him work seems to be the right option!<br /><br />LeaLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03384475081085015883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988275145038032119.post-24725611556222782412011-01-13T07:49:10.242-07:002011-01-13T07:49:10.242-07:00We have been married for 10 years now and I was th...We have been married for 10 years now and I was thinking just in the last month or so how relatively untouched by divorce we have been. Grandparents, aunts, uncles are all still together. <br /><br />Coworkers and older friends maybe have been divorced, but in the past, before I knew them.<br /><br />But just recently we have been hit with the news that some casual friends marriage is over and I have spent time talking with coworkers who are fed up. <br /><br />It is heartbreaking. And like you said, all you can really do is pray, offer what you can and work on your own marriage.<br /><br />(I don't want to be an obnoxious advice giver in those kind of situations- but I do feel it is important enough to give books, suggest a counselor etc if they are receptive...)The Three 22ndshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17837614628832423777noreply@blogger.com
