It can be in their case or someone close to them, so most of them will react to your situation in a good manner.

2. There is something wrong with you

Another very common myth among the divorced majority is the feeling that there is something wrong with them. In reality, this feeling has no base and evolves out of the dejection phase. You will not feel like this once you take life positively. Understand that everything happens for a reason and there is nothing wrong with you in taking such a decision. Your happiness is all that should matter to you at the end of the day.

3. You are responsible for the marriage and are paying for it

Another popular myth regarding divorce is the guilt feeling that you are responsible for the marriage and hence paying for it now. This again holds no ground as no one knows what’s in store for them in the future. No one marries thinking that they will divorce after a couple of years. If you continue thinking that your marriage was a mistake, then you will never be able to get out of it and ultimately you will not be able to start a new relationship. Learn from your past relationship and move forward.
