Your Divorce in Ocean County:  Broken Heart 

 

On the first day of your divorce in Ocean County, you have a Broken Heart.  There may have been many, many fractures along the way.  In the rush of chemicals into your brain that cause a flood of emotion, you will feel broken.  You will range from blaming your spouse or someone else to blaming yourself.  These are deep feelings.   

 

My Spouse Did This To Me! 

In near rapid fire succession, you experience the sensation of seeing, hearing, and feeling the events that caused your heart to break.  These events, as they flash in your mind, reflect things your spouse did to you.  Your spouse broke your heart.  He or she is to blame. 

 

Your Divorce in Ocean County:

It’s All My Fault! 

As quick as your mind may blame your spouse for your Broken Heart, you will assess blame to yourself.  This self-blame may flash into your mind, or it may stay for a while.  You will beat yourself up about the things you did or didn’t do.  You can break your own heart. 

 

I Can’t Go On!

Head, Heart, Gut … Hurt – Your Divorce in Ocean County

It hurts.  No matter who you are or how hard-hearted you may be, divorce in Ocean County hurts.  One of my fastest and most successful cases involved a client named Peter.  Peter was a very successful professional – a turnaround specialist.  Peter had an Ivy League M.B.A. and was a C.F.O. for hire.  He worked in manufacturing, consulting, and construction.  His strategy was to come in and be paid a truck load of money to stick around for two to four years and then move on to the next mission. 

A highly mobile career left a trail of lovely homes in desirable cities.  His wife had the pick of any two.  She would receive substantial assets and support from Peter.  He would be free to continue to pursue his career.  He was simultaneously cut-throat and fair to his wife.  When we met, he laid out the game plan with great precision and explained how the case would be done in three months.  I agreed with him, while secretly believing there was no chance.

 

He was exactly right.

 

Within three months, a deal had been constructed that both parties could live with and both attorneys felt was fair.  Peter appeared in court one time for 15 minutes.  After the case was over, I was thrilled and felt like a corporate titan.  I had helped the C.F.O. accomplish his project on time and on budget.  I expected a high-five and a promotion to the corner office.  Instead, Peter started crying.  This reminded me – your divorce in Ocean County hurts … everyone. 

On the first day – whether you are the initiator or the spouse hoping to reconcile, whether you have no hope, or whether you have full anticipation about your divorce in Ocean County will proceed – it will hurt.  If you have been separated for 15 years, your divorce in Ocean County will hurt.  You will feel it in your head, and in your heart.  You might even have physical symptoms.  Your feelings may seem powerful enough to paralyze and torture you for the rest of your days.
