A Site for Divorcees? Coming Right Up!

What can I say, Divorce360.com is a humdinger of an idea, everybody is left feeling void on the inside after a simple breakup, not to mention a divorce to end a marriage that started so nicely and happily and ends in tears and despair. But hey, s**t happens all the time and the important thing is to not let it get to you and to repeat in your head that "S**t does not happen only to me."

The niche the site plies to isn't what somebody would actually call a niche but rather an ocean: out of the 2.2 million marriages that happen yearly in the US alone, 1.4 million end in divorce. Still, it's not for everybody's eyes and interest, so it's still a niche, one that's very profitable, I might add - over 15 thousand dollars are spent on average by a person before and after divorce is final.

The dissolution of your marriage is sliced into four time based categories, ranging from "Deciding" and going through "Process," "Ongoing" and ending with "Moving On". Each of the four is in turn separated into four aspects of the respective period, "Legal," "Financial," "Emotional" and "Children", presenting articles on the topic and one or more experts' opinion.

As far as support goes, it's not a bad site to rummage through if you're going through that particular time in your life but, to be honest, I don't really know how much actual help this could provide the broken hearted, because in my opinion I don't think that finding out that your other half cheated on you might come to a graceful solution just by talking about it in joint therapy as suggested on the site. Call me old fashioned, but if that were to happen to me I'd be picking my ego up from the floor and be carrying it on a shield somewhere where it'd be safe and away from the bitch, not deepening the wound by asking questions on the matter in front of a third party.

The site, apart from the support mentioned above, also has the option to create a profile and ad lib about your situation and give others pieces of advice. A directory for service providers is on its way and they say that listing will be free at first and, later on, premium content will be added to help generate revenue. Additional resources are available for divorcees, like checklists, budget calculators, a glossary, links to relevant state laws and an abuse hotline.

Just hope that you won't have to resort to any of the above, or else you'll know exactly what the hurt and anguish talked about on the site are all about. And that would be a shame.
