Some key takeaways from this episode include: Divorce can bring about a big range of emotions. You might be relieved and even excited to end your marriage so you can move forward, or you might be grieving the relationship and feel angry. Because it’s such an emotional process, having a team you trust on your side is so important. Several things can cause a divorce to drag on for years. Child custody disputes, arguments over who will get a single item, and waiting for the courts can all extend the process. In North Carolina, there is “no fault” divorce, so you don’t have to prove any reasoning or wrongdoing in order to be granted a divorce. If one partner wants out, they can get out. (And thank goodness for that!)
