When a couple gets married, they hope it lasts forever. We all know that this is not always the case. Divorce can be traumatic and completely shocking, or it can be expected and even welcome. Whether a couple was married for 5 months, 5 years, or 5 decades, there is a sense of loss and grief over the end of the marriage. How long a couple was married can help predict the adjustment period. While it is not an exact ratio, it can help you understand how long to be kind to yourself, and expect to have some emotional upheaval.
