Divorce proceedings begin by establishing ‘grounds’ for divorce. In other words, it’s important to establish what has caused the desire to divorce and whether the desire is mutual between the two parties.  Many years ago the Courts required a person to prove grounds for the divorce. Otherwise it would not be granted. Adultery and cruelty were often cited as grounds.

In this day and age it is much different, however. Divorces are most often filed under the so-called “no-fault” method, wherein irreconcilable differences are cited as grounds for the divorce. However if the couple can’t reach agreement under these grounds it may be necessary to establish some other basis for divorce. This might include drug use, drunkenness, bigamy, cruelty, etc. This is usually avoidable since most parties agree to follow a no-fault divorce case.

guilty or betrayed, conflicted or wishful or all of the above – a slew
of emotions we seldom think about and speak of even less.

Divorce
changes us, if for no reason other than it is irrefutable, in-your-face
evidence that we have failed at something - however it happened and as
convinced as we might be that it was for the best.

As Sarah
Hampson observes in her intelligent, thoughtful and finely written
meditation on midlife after divorce, it invites us to take a hard look
at who we are.

“Divorce forces a rethinking of the myths, the
expectations, that brought us to the crisis point,” she writes in
Happily Ever After Marriage (Alfred A. Knopf Canada, $32). “It clears
