When going through a divorce or break-up of any kind, it can be difficult to remain civil with your ex. No matter how hard it may be, it is important to try to be as friendly as possible, especially if there are children involved. Cupid has some ideas:

1. Remember why you fell in love: Whenever you are going through a divorce or a tough split, it is important to keep in mind that you were once in love with this person and never forget what qualities made you fall in love in the first place. Keeping these desirable qualities about your ex close in thought will help you remain on good terms.
