Divorcing/Can’t sell house

[desmond]

Anybody watch this show last night? A Phoenix couple divorcing, can’t sell their “Million $” home, so they continue to live together during divorce with their 3 kids. It was painful to watch:

I could not get past the preview. Some things you just do not want in your head.

I did not watch it but this is a common scenario nowadays, esp. in hard-hit Chula Vista.

I have personally worked on two domestic cases where this is going on.

In one, the divorce has been final over a year and the parties are still living together (in separate rooms).

I didn’t watch the show – but I read the bit at the link…

Divorce is expensive. Of course it’s more expensive to have 2 households, vs one. My parents came close to divorce more than once – but the financial realities (retirement moneys split, etc) kept them together… And they found a way to work it out and rekindle, over time. Maybe that gives me a different perspective than most – seeing my parents get VERY close to divorce, and find a way to work it out – through a lot of work and effort.

I’ve got friends who “fell out of love” and got divorced. The men complain about child support, and a lowered lifestyle because the ex got half the assets. The women complain about loss of the life they had before (material things) and how hard it is to make ends meet. There are no winners.
