The Starter Marriage

Recently i started reading "The starter marriage" by Kate Harrison, (starter marriage: noun. A first marriage that lasts only a short time, does not produce children and ends in a clean divorce) As the title suggest, this story is abt divorce.. the gal in the story is going through a tough period of her life.. the after divorce life.. Her husband had left her for his secretary.. (how 'nice'?? secretary??)

anyway, as i was reading it this afternoon, i felt as though i was in her shoes.. feeling her lost, feeling her pain.. for that moment, it became so difficult for me to put a smile on my face... painful painful feeling...

It made me start to ponder... breaking up with ur bf is so painful... breaking up with ur husband?? i guess it must hurt 10 times more...

over the years, it's pretty clear that the divorce rate is shooting up.. i really wonder.. how many out there are able to pull through the period.. how many out there are still suffering sliently.. heard of all sorts of broken relationships between husband n wife.. actually i guess it's their children that feels the pain most.. kinda of upset to think abt these.. apparently i guess i'll have the least idea of how marriage is like, but i really can feel the pain of a divorcee... haiz.. painful..
