“A divorce is like a death but without the comfort of a funeral or sympathy cards. No one brings you flowers, but even if your divorce is right because your marriage was wrong, it can feel like you are being slowly, painstakingly ripped in half. Most studies of stress put divorce right up at the top, along with the death of a spouse, moving house, and a jail term. I’d find a jail term more stressful than moving house, but everyone is different.”

“But I stopped and watched for a while, and I knew. I can’t tell you exactly how I knew. Sometimes you just do. Even if you have the intuition of a potato.”

“I wanted to stay in my life for just a few seconds more.”

“I thought about my mother saying you could bring a marriage back from the brink and I wondered if that’s what we were doing: carefully tiptoeing our way back from the cliff edge.”
