Breakup Divas

Share your Funniest Breakup Story with us! 💔

We want to hear your funniest breakup story (but try not to be cruel please).

Here is one I heard years ago from another therapist: a woman learned that her husband was having an affair and decided to throw him out of the house and divorce him. Before he came home she threw all of his clothing and other belongings on the front lawn and turned on the garden hose. It was in the dead of winter in Michigan. You can envision the rest. 🙃

Stories connect us, and laughter is inherently healing. We love to hear your stories!

Breakup Divas Because breaking up is hard to do. Join the Breakup Divas sisterhood, and move towards a brighter future!

The doorway

In her book entitled “Crossing to Avalon” Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen describes women who are in transition as symbolically standing under a lintel or doorway. She uses this image to signify that one is not where one was and not yet where one will be. This is often what we feel when we are going through a major change in our lives such as a relationship ending. While this time can be uncertain and frightening it also can be a space for opportunity. It can be a time to listen to ourselves and explore new avenues. These are often experiences that we would not have taken the opportunity to explore when we were in a relationship. This can be a time to stretch and try something new. As you stand under the doorway, not where you were and not yet where you will be, give yourself the gift of seeing and trying new possibilities.
