Divorces

[DianaB]

What I meant by saying that divorce is contagious is that if I'm best friends with someone and she and her husband are having problems and she's complaining about her marriage then I'm likely to complain about my marriage too. It makes me look at my marriage differently. I've know women who were good friends that have gotten divorced about the same time.

I didn't mean that as friends we should avoid people who are getting a divorce. We do have to safe guard our marriages so we don't join in and think that we're unhappy too.

Val, I'm sorry that your friends didn't support you during that time. Please don't think that I was telling people to avoid those that are going through divorces because that isn't what I meant at all.
