COMMUNICATION AFTER SEPARATION

Divorce and separation are painful experiences, especially after a long-term commitment. It's natural for both parties to feel angry and disappointed, often believing the other is at fault. However, it's essential to set emotions aside and address critical matters, such as childcare and financial obligations, after separation.

While communication is necessary, it should be minimized to avoid rekindling past conflicts. The issues that led to separation, such as misunderstandings or miscommunications, won't magically resolve themselves.

A logical, minimal conversation can be more beneficial than ignoring remaining common interests. Lawyers often advise against contact between spouses to prevent escalating problems and defenses, which can impact the legal process.

However, if the legal system fails to resolve the situation or address ignored rights, and the process drags on for years without results, a logical communication between parties can be beneficial. This approach requires setting emotions aside and focusing on finding mutually beneficial solutions.

Although this process can be challenging, it's essential to acknowledge that ignoring remaining problems won't solve them. Either the legal system should provide a resolution, or the parties involved should engage in a logical, emotion-free communication to address their common interests.
