My friend is desperately sad as he is going through a particularly bad divorce with his wife of five years. He seems to think I have all the answers yet I have not even been married. All I can do in this situation is listen and try to be as sympathetic as I can. A divorce happens for mutual reasons and is only granted on the fact that both parties agree to it, at least that is how divorce in Thailand work anyway. I have realised that there are many stages to a divorce; the first is anger as my friend was angry that the divorce was happening to start with. Then he started to reason with his partner, then he tried denial and then finally he had no choice but to accept her wishes.

This is a classic psychological response that I am sure many men have been through who have experienced divorce. For a foreigner in Thailand going through a divorce I really pity them as they can often feel trapped and isolated and may even resort to cancelling the divorce for fear of being alone.
All I can hope for is that I am never in the same situation because I am really bad in dealing with conflicts and I am not a confrontational person at all. Good luck to those who are experiencing a divorce in anywhere in the world and remember that sadly sometimes things happen for a reason and we just have to accept it and try to move on as best we can. A divorce in Thailand (or anywhere else) is a horrible thing to have to endure but sometimes the best things can come from the worst situation so remember to stay positive and you should be fine and you are never alone.
