Women initiate the vast majority of all divorces so I don't think women are that upset if it ends in divorce.

I read a article that said, next to loosing a child, a divorce is the hardest thing you'll go through in your life. I still have my beautiful daughter, but watched my wife walk out of my life and rip my heart into pieces. I told my ex wife you'll never know how bad you hurt me. So i have to agree with the article..

Yeah! Brain, most women are heartless. I know my ex wife is..

I think the main difference is that death is permanent, but the one you divorced is still around.
They really are similar is that they are both heart breaking and so very painful...it seems as though the pieces of your heart will never fit back together again.
Strange that I should be reading this today...my mother died exactly a month ago, and it's still so hard to believe she's gone..even after a battle with esophageal cancer.

when someone you love dies, that love goes on forever when you divorce, love dies.

After loosing my only daughter at the young tender age of 10 - I can honestly say that TIME, FAMILY & FRIENDS that support and listen well are the best way to over come the loss of a loved one.

And - NEVER forget to CRY when you feel the NEED......... even if it is years later.

A divorce is a willful decision to terminate a relationship, which has connotations of rejection, spitefulness and cruelty (whether intentional or not).

Death is permanent and that's what makes it painful. But it doesn't carry the same sense of intentional rejection.
