“Why Divorces Get Ugly and How to Have a Good One” — Some advice if you are considering divorce:

If you’re unhappy, go to your spouse and tell them what’s wrong. Be completely honest.
Communicate to your spouse and figure out if the two of you want to make an effort to save the marriage or not. No pretending to be innocent and harboring bad feeling.
Look at your role in why the marriage is breaking up and own your crap. Don’t just blame the other person.
Communicate the truth about the marriage. Walk away knowing it was both of you who contributed to the downfall of your marriage. It’s a powerful feeling.
