We've all seen it—the person who, in the midst of a divorce, falls head over heels for someone new, and suddenly their entire focus shifts to the next chapter. They're convinced this new relationship is the one and are eager to move forward.

When I was going through my divorce, it felt like it would never end. One exhausting email after another, endless meetings, and no clear finish line in sight. I get why so many women hit a breaking point and think, I just want this to be over.

Are you someone who always wants to be right? A Type A perfectionist like me? If so, this common mistake might hit close to home. During a divorce, it's easy to fall into the trap of believing that your way is the only way.
