Your final tip: Use every resource you can find for coping with separation and getting you to the other side of being a whole, happy person ready to face the future. Separation after a marriage or long relationship brings about fears, sorrow, self-doubt, anger, and frustration. Expect to feel all these emotions at one time or another. By coping with separation in a pro-active way, you smooth the transition from married woman to single woman. Whether the separation came as a shock or was expected, use the resources available to you. Nurture yourself like you have never done before. Look at the separation time as a chance to look back and grieve for the loss, take a look at where you have been, and then map out the path to where you are going.
