Quiet Divorce: The Truth

December 10, 2025

“Quiet Divorce.”  It seems to be the topic of article after article.  And the articles make it seem like, “No big deal, just happens, oh well.” But it IS a big deal.  And it ISN’T anything new.  Just another way of describing something we have discussed here often… the dangers of disconnection. I talked about this some time ago, when everyone was talking about Quiet Quitting during the pandemic — people were still technically employed, they just weren’t doing anything for the job.  They quit the work, but kept taking a paycheck.  I noted that sometimes, people Quiet Quit a marriage.  Which is exactly what “Quiet Divorce” is noting. People are still legally married.  But emotionally… not so much. Why does this matter? Because this doesn’t have to be the case.  You don’t have to be choosing the path of withdrawal.  But unless you understand what is going on, it is hard to do anything else.  Which is why we need to talk about Quiet Divorce… the Truth about it, and what you can do.
