France Hosts No. 1 Divorce Fair
Wednesday, November 11th, 2009
France is now having its first divorce fair. This is quite the dreary ending to the city of romance and loves saga. Thousands of people attended the fair this year. Apparently nearly one of two marriages in France ends in divorce, but thirty years ago there were only 50,000 divorces. Today France has over 260,000 annually, which means this fair caters to a large group of people.
The "New Start" trade fair focused on the booming market by bringing in 60 stands. These stands represented everything from law firms and counselors to makeover specialists and tarot card readers. They even had talks entitled "Plastic surgery's role in re-conquering your image," "Meeting on the Web," and "Separation: What does a lawyer do?"
The fact that there is a divorce fair is absolutely ridiculous and that thousands attended is even more pathetic. This is not only a waste of time but also money. It sounds like these people are vulnerable and vendors are taking advantage of them.
Another thing that shows the quality of the fair is the title of the talks. These people might not be in the right frame of mind to decide on plastic surgery and dating on the web. Plus, if they're going to have talks why don't they talk about more important things like "How to handle your finances" or "Helping your child survive divorce."
Oh and all the vendors that they have. It's not that hard to look in a phone book, on the web, or get recommendations from friends and acquaintances for good lawyers. Next, what purpose is a tarot card reader? They will just tell you a bunch of crap that you want to hear. You might as well call up a friend that will not only serve as a listening board but also offer you good advice and offer encouragement. This advice unlike the tarot card reader and fortune teller will actually help you with a fresh start.
Just the fact that this fair exists is pretty sad. It seems the people that attended are seriously desperate or just wanting to meet more people that have the same sob story. If you want to go meet people go out online or to the local bar. Don't get interested in people at the fair that aren't emotionally over their divorce because it will most likely just end up causing more pain.
These supposed services are supposed to help you. It seems they are just helping themselves to you pocket book and your time. Since they're trying to help you so much they might as well invite real estate agents, furniture reps. and automobile makers in. They could really help you start a new life. Oh and the tips on how to apply more seductive makeup? Give me a break this is the dumbest idea and even attendees of the fair also thought it was a bit weird.
If you want to feel better about yourself hit the gym or change your hair. Even though it's not necessary, many women feel they need to make changes in order to attract others and boost their self-esteem. If it's this soon they are still vulnerable and should probably be by themselves for a while at least until the divorce is finalized. It will be better for themselves, their child, and whoever they date in the future. All of the issues will be solved and they can focus solely on their relationship rather than previous baggage that they're still carrying around.
