Divorce
A divorce is the legal ending of a marriage. If you are legally divorced, you can then marry someone else.
If you have relationship problems, you can try to talk with your partner or someone you can trust. You can also seek professional help. It takes time to solve a relationship problem. If you cannot solve the problems, you can consider divorce or separation.
Divorce can be a very difficult and emotional period in a person’s life. People may feel loss, pain, anxiety or anger. You can ask for professional help to get through it. For some couples, however, a divorce can be a relief after a difficult period together.
