  1. What a good list. I was especially interested in the book "Making Marriage Simple". I will definitely read it, although at the moment it is not relevant to me. My marriage is about to cease to exist. Three days ago, we filled out the divorce forms, which we downloaded here https://onlinedivorcer.co.uk/

    But I don’t plan to be lonely for the rest of my days. I will use the advice from the book in my second marriage.
