The first tip is: be brutally honest about the questions that follow. Hint: if you are blaming your ex, you are not being brutally honest. It takes two to tango. You played a role in that divorce. What was your role?
What made you decide to marry the original time? Were you too young? Did you marry for wrong reasons? Did you think he was going to take care of your financial needs? Do you have co-dependent behavior and you rescued someone who was struggling? Did you get pregnant before marriage? Did your parents pressure you into a marriage? It's wisdom to examine the reasons you married the first time with brutal honesty to see if there is something you might do differently the next time. You might need the help of a counselor to make those changes.
Did the communication between you and your ex fall from loving dialogue to harsh criticism or sarcasm? How did that happen? If the communication coming from your ex was hurtful, did you swallow that hurt without discussing it with him only to find it coming out of your own mouth? If your communicating isn't harmonious, this is a big clue that the marriage is going downhill fast. Don't retreat behind a wall of silence. The only way I know to fix this is to improve your sense of self: join Toastmasters and become a better speaker. Get into therapy and learn more about your strengths and weaknesses and how to talk about them.
My virtual assistant told me that in her early life, her extreme sensitivity to parental fighting put her into a state of speechless shock. It's not surprising to know that the very same thing carried forward into her first marriage. She couldn't believe that such evil words and angry gestures were coming at her. I think that individuals are intrinsically good, and they would not come close to using behavior that is abusive; so this is what makes them a bit vulnerable when it happens to them. If you go into shock, please find help via a pastor or a counselor to help you past this stuck spot so that you don't carry it into another unhappy marriage/divorce situation.
Do you carry a grudge or a long list of "he done me wrongs?" If you do this, it will be on your mind constantly and by thinking about it, you will recreate it over and over. You might not be aware that you are doing this. Examine your thinking about your ex and see if there's a grudge you're holding against him for his mistakes. If you do, look up "how to forgive" on the internet and then get busy doing that work.
Is it tough for you to think on your feet when your spouse is screaming at you? It is impossible to reason with unreasonableness, and anger is unreasonable. You can use a technique those in the know about good communication have labeled "Broken Record". Simply say "I'm happy to return to this in a while after you've had the chance to calm down a little." SHE CONTINUES TO RAGE.... Say again: "I'm happy to return to this in a while after you've had the chance to calm down a little." Each time you hear the rage spoken forth, repeat the claim you want to make like a broken record: "I'm happy to return to this in a while after you've had the chance to calm down a little." Make a date to discuss it. If you will ask your spouse to write down some ideas he'd like you to understand, and tell him you'll do that as well.
It is my strong hope that these tips will keep you from becoming a statistic for second marriage/ divorce rates and avoid the pain of a second divorce.
One of the emerging trends in buying real estate has been the evolution of the role of buyer's agent. It seems that the roles of real estate agents have been growing ever more defined as buyers and sellers require vastly different services in their pursuit of homes or home sales. So what is the role of an agent dedicated solely to buying?
To start, a buyer's agent is an expert on the art of purchasing. This includes a wide breadth of information and education in the current market. Buyer's agents are constantly updating and educating themselves on current market trends to ensure that their clients are paying the right prices for homes. They will know if a seller is asking too much, and if there is room to negotiate.
Long before the offer process even starts, the buyers agent will begin to search the homes that are available on the local market according to your distinct criteria. As agents that deal singly with buying they are champions at keeping themselves aware of the latest listings and are also skilled at matching clients to homes quickly and within a given price range.
Once an appropriate home is found, the buyer's agent then begins the process of coordinating the viewings, and if an offer is made; the inspections process. Essentially the role of a buyer's agent is to become a conduit between the buyer and the seller, making it necessary for the buyer to do nothing but view the home and sign the papers.
In today's high paced world of real estate time is of the essence. It requires an agent who is quick to respond and fulfills all of the needs of their clients with accuracy and confidence. The customer service that is offered by a buyer's agent is second to none. If you are looking to purchase a home with the least amount of stress and worry then a buyer's agent is the agent for you.
