Separation & Divorce: Would you do it again‪?‬

'Separation & Divorce - Would you do it again?' is a rich source of life experience for anyone unhappy in their marriage.

Fourteen women who left their marriage or long-term relationship share their stories and what they learnt. They describe what they thought, and how they felt and struggled as they tried to reach a decision. Looking back, they recognise the early warning signs and the emerging cracks - in the relationship and within themselves.

Each of them explores and answers the confronting question: "Knowing what you know now ... would you do it again?"

The women speak with honesty and insight. For some it was the hardest, but ulimately best, decision of their life. Others still regret it decades later. Others would simply do it differently.

While each women's experience is different, common themes emerge - of loneliness, self-doubt, fear, guilt, hope and ultimately strength. The women also share their thoughts on what they would do differently if they could do things over.

This is important reading for any woman wondering what to do about their unhappy marriage - and for any man who wants to understand how a marriage can end, because for most of them, it was a surprise!
