Although the holiday season is often portrayed as a time of love, joy, and togetherness that is not always the case for many individuals, those struggling with marital issues often see those compounded during the holidays due to the stress and added family obligations. Simply put: A turbulent holiday season can often lead to a post holiday divorce in Tulsa.
The attorneys of Fry & Elder are sensitive to the situations individuals face when considering a post-holiday divorce. While resolution is always promoted, sometimes a breakaway at the start of the New Year can be the perfect tonic for someone looking to exit an unhealthy and even abusive marriage.

Fry & Elder’s team of attorneys answer some of the more reasons as to what leads to a post-holiday divorce in Tulsa.
Heightened Stress Levels
The holiday season can bring about a surge in stress, whether due to financial pressures, the demands of gift shopping, or the effort required to plan and host gatherings. For couples already experiencing tension in their marriage, these added stressors can push them to a breaking point, leading to discussions of divorce in the new year.
Unrealistic Expectations
The holidays often come with lofty expectations of joy and perfection. Couples may feel immense pressure to create the ideal holiday experience, from decorating their homes to planning gatherings and exchanging gifts. When these expectations are not met, feelings of disappointment can intensify existing marital issues.
Escalating Conflicts
The combination of heightened emotions, financial strain, and increased alcohol consumption at holiday gatherings can lead to escalated conflicts between spouses. Arguments and misunderstandings that occur during this time can contribute to a breakdown in communication and further strain the marriage.
