Divorce is a lot like losing someone. It is the death of a marriage. It is a sheer and brutal act of abandonment. It is extremely personal. Even after the meanest separation or divorce that caught you off guard, you may achieve this level of self-acceptance and forgiveness. This doesn’t mean you deny what they did to you or run away from the pain. Instead, you allow yourself to experience it all—the guilt, shame, anger, and disappointment—and move through it. If that’s how you’re feeling right now, this book is for you.

This book sheds light on two seemingly opposing ideas: Divorce or breakups, and marriage or intact relationships. Most of it helps you cope with the heartbreak of being dumped, breaking up, going through moving out, or even signing the divorce papers. It is meant to help those who have experienced this see things in a different light, and at the same time, accept what cannot be changed.
