If it were me, I would not want to go to a friends house and "talk" about my divorce. Maybe you could plan a fun day for you two...like go to lunch and then go to the movies or have a girls night on the town. I would not even bring up the divorce or her ex unless your friend brought it up first and wanted to talk about it. ESPECIALLY since she knows that you know and are somewhat friends with her EX, I would not even bring his name up.

Thanks Rebecca! I'm never good at bringing up uncomfortable topics anyway. I prefer to let the other person bring it up if they want to talk about it, so that was kind of my plan. Maybe we'll just have a girl's night out or something to get her mind off of the situation. She seems to be having such a hard time...

But wow, 2 couples that were divorced after less than two years?! That's so sad! Hopefully everyone is doing better now and maybe a little wiser...
