We hear some sad tales as divorce lawyers, I can tell you. But some clients find some of their own sadnesses funny with hindsight--good for them! It is one way of coping with divorce.
As a divorce lawyer, I hope these two things:
1. if you want to stay together, I wish you a wonderful Valentines Day!
2. if you want to get a divorce, I hope you find a way to do so as amicably as possible. We can help with that.
But, back to the lighter side of divorce. I see from the Fox 31 site that they ran a competition for the worst Valentines Day ever. There are some very sad (dare I say amusing?) stories on there but the winner is reported to have had this experience:
My worst and humiliating (really to say the least) Valentine's Day was the day my divorce was final 16 years ago. But to make matters worse was to find out that my own mother was dating my now ex-husband and had been for quite some time. They are still together today, so Valentine's Day is spent trying not to think about it. Wait-I try not to think about it everyday.
What was your worst Valentines experience?
