Or is it? The truth is, on the emotional plane, you may still have some vital issues to resolve. Much of the time, the newly divorced still carry residue from the experience. Only after you have truly severed not just the legal, but also the emotional ties of your marriage are you free to rebuild your sense of identity and begin anew.
The Heart of Darkness: Dealing with the Anger and Pain
In the aftermath of your divorce, along with a feeling of relief you may continue to harbor guilt, pain, and anger. You must resolve these feelings so that you can move on.
Remember, pain and anger following divorce are quite natural. But dwelling on these feelings is doing yourself a disservice by sustaining a relationshipat least in your mindwith a partner who has probably already let you go. It is time to move on.
Yes, of course, if you've been mistreated, anger is appropriate. You'll need a little fire in your belly as you move on in the world. May such mistreatment never befall you again!
