A stupid over-dramatic headline for a piece that fails to recognise importance of dignified separations on mental health of both adults & children, or meaning of perfectly apt saying “happiness is the best revenge”. The goal is to be happy, not make others as unhappy as possible.
The problem is most assume others couple for the same reasons they do. Some couple because housing needs, financial reasons, boredom, or not wanting to be old & alone. Most are “in-lust” not “in-love”—then the kids come. Not everyone in a relationship is in-love with a spouse.
It's clearly better to tear lumps out of each other, destroying children's mental health in the process 🙄
'internal and external perfection' my ass! it obvious someone can't perform in bed there and you don't look good kicking them when they're down... Enter: ConsciousUncoupling
great article.
how much better they are at getting in and out of relationships. “Conscious uncoupling” is a celebrity-endorsed attitude towards separation, made famous by Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin.
