A Dissenting Opinion By Someone Who Can't YET See the Positive Sides!

Some weeks ago, I got an email from a guy who was suffering from his own divorce and sent me the following note.....
(he did not buy my book or read it)

Know what Brian Daniel,
There are no positive aspects of divorce.
You live a life alone.
Friends turn on you like your the enemy even though she was the one that committed Adultery. I couldn't even get that put down as the cause of the divorce. The judge said it could cause her some problems later in life.
After the Affairs, The divorce, all the legal posturing, Living alone, Then you start trying to date.

I know that women have a hard time dating guys but we have an impossible job ahead of us trying to date.
There are no positive aspects of divorce.
There is no hope for the future after the financial screwing you get, then of course there's child support that goes to fix their hair and nails for the weekend out.

You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to profit from a subject that has ruined many, many, men.
Just my thoughts


It was obvious to me that this fellow was indeed feeling a lot of the negative things all of us go through in a divorce.

I sent the following reply back just in case it may help him move along to the positive side of this traumatic change in life, a life change that millions of us go through each year. Here's my reply....

Hi Guy,

I felt like you do, full of anger, resentment, stung badly with child support and alimony that left me very little to live on. That happens to many men.

But I refused to let that stuff ruin the rest of my life. I went about looking at the good stuff I still had and decided to change myself and the rest of my life to be a happier and more enjoyable one.

That's what my book is about, taking that second chance at life and make something GOOD out of it.
