Second Marriage Problems

Many couples face second marriage problems. As you will discover from reading the articles in this section, these relationships contain their own set of difficult issues.

Sometimes one or both members of a couple have rushed into the relationship as a way to ease the pain and loneliness of divorce. Keep in mind that many people enter into their next relationship within three years of ending their first union.

For others, the challenges of a blended family result in overwhelm, anger, or hopelessness. This is no surprise when you consider that more than 70% of next relationships include step-children. Working out discipline rules, visitation, and holidays between two households can lead to one or more parents feeling out of control.

Having been divorced once, sometimes the barrier to ending a relationship doesn't seem so daunting. It's almost as if, in the next union, one or both members of the couple might secretly be thinking "well, I survived divorce once. I guess I could survive it again." Not something many first time newlyweds think or feel.

The articles in this section are designed to help you resolve your second marriage problems.
