Every Breath You Take

This quote will resonate with any family law lawyer:

"No one cares more about the things you do than the person who used to be married to you."

- New York divorce lawyer Jacalyn Barnett

It is completely understandable that often former spouses have a hard time letting go. They will be quite preoccupied by who their ex is spending time with, what purchases they're making, trips they're taking, when they go out with friends, what they're saying and whether they seem to be happy or sad. Some of this information might be relevant to the separation case, but sometimes it's not. Even with the passage of time, it can be difficult to simply let the feelings go and reach a point of only mild interest.
