"Women and Divorce: How Women Should Protect Themselves Financially Regarding Divorce"

Written by Karl Augustine


Women who believe a divorce is a possibility or who think that their husband will be asking about getting a divorce at some point should put their emotions aside and plan "just in case" their intuition is correct that a divorce may be coming inrepparttar near future. If women who believe thatrepparttar 130602 "divorce discussion" may be lurking, they should make it a point to look for solid signs that their husband will indeed ask for a divorce...then they should plan accordingly.

Women who think that they are signs that her husband may ask for a divorce but haven't thought about it deeply or who think that a divorce would better suit them rather than their husbands, should viewrepparttar 130603 situation realistically and as stoically as possible. This will ensure that plan they take is calculated, logical and will benefit them based on what they wantrepparttar 130604 end result to yield.

Often times women refuse to think that a divorce could happen to them and one day their husband comes home and says "There's something I have been meaning to talk to you about..." or "I think we should get a divorce." or something similar. Ifrepparttar 130605 situation has reached this point, its too late for women to start planning for their financial future after divorce.

So what do women who think a divorce is eminent or who want a divorce for themselves do in order to ensure they aren't left in financial ruin?

There's certainly a myriad of tactics that can be used and each woman's situation is different regarding divorce, but here's some tactics that will help:

Women and divorce tactic 1:

Once women know that they will be getting a divorce, they should make a plan and keep it to themselves. They shouldn't let anyone know what they've decided to do. They should not tell their friends, co-workers, or family...no one. And they certainly shouldn't lead on to their husband that they want a divorce if they arerepparttar 130606 ones who will be makingrepparttar 130607 first move to endrepparttar 130608 marriage.

Women and divorce tactic 2:

Women in divorce should realize thatrepparttar 130609 plan they take may require several months to implement and they should be patient and plan logically. Women should learn how much money it would take to support themselves (and children ifrepparttar 130610 situation warrants it), how much money is actually available to them now, and how they can adjust their lifestyle to make sure they can financially survive.

The Power In A Gathering Of Women

Forget "fight or flight" asrepparttar only duo of responses inrepparttar 130599 face of stress. For women, there's a third response: "befriend". A landmark UCLA study turned five decades of stress research on its head withrepparttar 130600 revelation that a cascade of brain chemicals gives women a larger behavioral repertoire when confronted with stress. The hormone oxytocin is released as part ofrepparttar 130601 stress response in women. It controlsrepparttar 130602 fight/flight response and, instead, encourages her to tend children and gather with other women.

Accordingly to co-researcher Dr. Laura Cousino Klein, now assistant professor of bio-behavioral health at Penn State,repparttar 130603 study suggests that this "tending and befriending" response to oxytocin produces a calming effect. Although it will take new studies to reveal allrepparttar 130604 ways in which oxytocin encourages women to care for children and band together, it might also explain why women consistently outlive men.

I have addressed numerous women's conferences and corporate networks of women and I can attest torepparttar 130605 observable behavior that participants leave these sessions feeling stronger, encouraged, and positive. I believe they also leave healthier. The famed Nurses Health Study from Harvard Medical School found thatrepparttar 130606 more friends people have, they less likely they are to develop physical ailments andrepparttar 130607 more likely they are to cope better with challenges.
