One story is about a woman who found out her husband was cheating. Instead of getting angry immediately, she quietly took control of their joint finances. She transferred the money to a new account and used it to buy a property in her name only. Then she served him the divorce papers. He was left with almost nothing while she had a new start.
I don't know exactly who said it. It could have been a protagonist who came to this realization after going through a series of challenges and learning lessons about the futility of revenge.
Sure. In one case, a wife found her husband had a secret gambling problem that was draining their savings. She hired a private investigator to gather evidence. During the divorce, she presented this evidence which made it clear he was irresponsible. As a result, she got the majority of the assets and custody of the kids.
Yes, they are quite common. After a divorce, people often go through a period of self - growth. During this time, they may meet new people. For example, at work or through friends. Sometimes, they find that they can have a more fulfilling relationship with someone new, or in some cases, rekindle a relationship with their ex - spouse in a healthier way.
