Unfortunately, the people who typically read my articles or visit my blog are not in the best or happiest of marital situations. Usually, they have or will be faced with talks of divorce and they're often the spouse who wants to save the marriage while the other wants to end it. I know from experience that this is a very difficult situation to be in – one in which you feel that you are constantly walking on egg shells and petrified of doing the wrong thing.

Often, your head...

Military divorce laws are definitely more complicated than a normal divorce.  Think about it.  The nature of the military is structured and regimented and to be a member of the military staff or married to one, you can have issues that are very complicated.  As a military member, you travel quite a bit and jurisdiction plays a major role.  Quite a few areas of law affect the military family that is divorcing more so than a regular civilian divorce.  Given the...

I realize that there are situations where both people are completely on board and ready to move forward with a divorce. But, these are not the situations about which I'm commonly approached. Instead, I'm usually contacted by wives whose husbands have indicated that they want to divorce (and some have even filed / served the papers), but the wives want to save the marriage.

They will often ask things like: "Do I have to go through with the divorce if I don't want to? Is there...

I often write about avoiding a divorce and saving your marriage instead. I often get emails from folks asking for what really is legal advice or strategies meant to thwart, slow, or cease the divorce. I'm talking about things like dodging being served, being late on answering legal documents, or "contesting" the divorce to ensure that the whole ordeal is a drawn out, slow process.

I understand that this strategy is meant to buy time in the hopes that your spouse changes...

Fathers visitations rightswill arise in circumstances where they do not win custody of the child and these visitation rights can be agreed with the custodial parent or arise as a result of a court ruling in circumstances where the parents have been unable to agree a parenting plan and access rights for the non custodial parent.

The first thing to recognize is that the court may prevent visitation right altogether for the father where the court decides that it is not in the...

When thinking about how to get your ex husband back with dignity, you need to deal with and understand how genetics dictate how a man works so you can work with nature and win your husband back.

1) Men don't like chit chat: Generally speaking men don't like to talk in depth about their feelings and forcing the issue will just cause them to clam up even more. So when you are trying to get back together, don't force him to analyze what went wrong. If he behaved badly but is willing...

How many times do men ask their friends how do I get my ex wife back ?  Honestly, I thought it was a woman's prerogative to change her mind.  Some men just don't know when they are onto a good thing and their reasons for ending relationships border on the ridiculous.

My male friends have finished with girls for:

1) Wearing the wrong type of shoes!

2) Her mother

3) The new barmaid at his favourite bar smiled at him.

Now ok I know that a pretty face...

Every relationship has its own unspoken "rules" by which both people fulfill particular roles in relation to one another. In the best relationships these rules just naturally develop and both people feel comfortable and happy with the security and predictability of the relationship. In the worst of relationships there is a struggle for control or one person wants to stifle and control the other person's free will. This can happen in a relationship before marriage, during...

You have dealt with the pain and confusion of your divorce and have decided to start dating again. Perhaps you have already met someone who you love spending time with, or perhaps you are just eyeing the available candidates and sizing them up. Before you get in too deep with someone new, take the time to consider how well you stand up for yourself in relationships.

Understanding Boundaries

Boundaries are lines that separate acceptable behaviors from those that are...
