Breaking up with a lover you once swore eternal love to is never as simple as it seems. But what are the inner struggles of people who decide to divorce due to differences in values, views on money, or infidelity? Let's take a look at a survey conducted by foreign media on this complex psychology.
According to a British media survey, 54% of divorced individuals surveyed had carefully considered the issue of divorce. Another 42% said they had considered continuing the marriage. This shows that many people still deeply love their ex-partners after a divorce. A divorce agreement alone is insufficient to help them manage their complex emotions.
So what is it like to experience that indescribable feeling of regret after a divorce? British media have outlined some of the main psychological processes involved.
People who regret their divorce often think of feelings like "feeling lonely after breaking up with their loved one," "feeling abandoned by life," or "divorce was such an irrational decision."
Ultimately, there are many couples who still deeply love each other even after divorce, or who believe divorce was not the right choice. Of course, there's no doubt that many couples go through a period of great distress and deliberation before making the decision to divorce. Some people, even if they believe that a couple's arguments have reached an irreconcilable point, shouldn't resort to the extreme of divorce, but rather use temporary separation as a way for both parties to cool down.
According to a survey, 95% of people are quite interested in using separation as a way to save their marriage. They believe that during this period of separation, both partners can calmly reflect on the reasons for their discord and think about what can be done to improve their relationship. Even if they argue fiercely as soon as they meet, after a period of separation, they will feel the loneliness of not having each other, or rediscover the good qualities of their partner that they had never noticed before. If this happens, they might feel a desire to continue the marriage.
Of course, there are also cases where separation cannot repair the marital relationship, in which case divorce may be the only option. Although some people abroad view divorce positively and some even suggest holding singles parties, no matter how wonderful the gathering, it cannot easily heal the wounds in people's hearts.
