S4 E16: Understanding No-Fault Divorce and the Search for Accountability
In a no-fault legal system, the emotional breakdown of a marriage rarely translates into a courtroom victory. This discussion examines the evolution of divorce law since 1985 and the persistent human need for accountability in the wake of betrayal. We explore the concept of the "third person" in contemporary relationships—the addictions, fixations, or domestic habits that can erode connection—and consider whether modern marriage requires the clarity of a formal business contract. From the privacy of mediation to the nuances of marriage contracts, we address how to navigate a difficult transition with dignity and perspective.
