You might not have a checklist for the people you date. That’s something that’s often better left for romantic comedies. But, while you might not want to go looking for someone who “checks all of the boxes,” it is important to make sure you know what you really want while dating. That might seem obvious, right? Well, not necessarily. 

Many people describe the butterflies and nerves they get when they’re in a new relationship. Some people still have those same “happy” nerves even after years of being with someone. But there’s a difference between butterflies and anxiety.

Divorce is not a black-and-white situation. It is a tumultuous time for both partners. There are many emotions involved, which can get messy and complicated. Many people commonly view divorcing men and women in a certain light.

No matter the type of relationship, it should have boundaries for both people. Whether it is with a romantic partner, friend, family member, or coworker, setting boundaries is really important.

Divorce is never an easy thing to decide to do. You spent time building a life with this person, creating memories with them, and planning for the future. Yet when it all comes crashing down, it can feel like a heavy weight is on your heart and soul.
