In “It Doesn’t have to be That Way,” Laura Wasser argues that divorce doesn’t have to be the way we imagine it to be: messy and tiring. In fact, most of the hard work should be done BEFORE you’re even married. By keeping the lines of communication open, especially with regards to the most difficult topics, you will set yourself up for success: not only during your relationship but also in case you and your partner decide to separate. In it you’ll learn what to do before marriage, how to keep your marriage healthy and exciting, but also Laura walks you through the steps you’ll need to understand during and after the divorce is settled. And remember, even if you aren’t in need of a divorce, one of your family members or friends inevitably will be. So, if not for yourself, learn for them.
