Is it possible to make friends after a divorce?
It is possible and also very convenient to make friends after divorce. We usually spend many hours with our partner, so when the relationship ends, those hours remain unoccupied. Solitude, when it is chosen, feels very good. But when it's forced, it's a bit of a struggle. That is why it is so important to have friends and family with whom you can share your time, your concerns and your hobbies.
Divorce is not the end of the world and it is not a failure at all. It is the end of a period that has ended because it had to end and the beginning of a new course that does not have to be worse or better, just different. It opens the door to two possibilities:
Enjoying the benefits of being alone: dedicating the time you used to spend with your partner to your family, friends, travelling, personal or professional growth...
Meeting someone with whom to share the next stage of your life with the experience of a previous relationship that did not work out. You have a very valuable learning experience, and you are becoming clearer about what you want and what you don't want in a partner.
