The news people are saying that the number of divorces have fallen recently because people cannot afford to divorce.
May I make suggestions to two groups about how to use this lemon to make lemonade? First to those wanting to divorce but staying together right now because of money. Second, to those who know a couple staying together only because of the economy.
If your marriage is miserable, at least one of you wants out, and in a better economy you’d be sitting in your attorney’s office right now rather than reading this blog, then I have great news for you. Not having the financial resources to divorce may be the best thing that has ever happened to you. How? It slows you down long enough to see if there is a chance that you could be happily in love with each other again. Sound ridiculous? I lead a workshop called LovePath 911. For nearly a decade I’ve seen marriages that everyone had given up on — especially one or both of the spouses — turn around and become wonderful. Rather than tolerating each other until the economy revives, do something constructive! Contact us at LovePath 911 to discover whether your marriage could be made what you’ve always wanted it to be.
If you know a couple in crisis (your parents, your child, your friend, your co-worker, whomever), take advantage of the bad economy that is keeping them together. Convince them to come to our LovePath 911 workshop and give us the chance to turn that marriage around. Our success rate over nearly a decade is three out of four couples. It works even if neither wants to be there and they come just to get someone — someone like you! — to get off their backs. Rather than allowing this bad economy to cause all kinds of bad things, use it to make at least one good thing happen. Saving a marriage.
