Will Dr Justin Dean Take Back Korra Obidi?

The divorce of Justin Dean and Korra Obidi seemed to come very suddenly. One moment, the internet was debating whether they should have televised the very intimate water birth of their second child. The next moment, Dr was saying he was tired, and had had enough. What followed was fireworks from both sides which have now subsided.

But it looks like the issues that finally burst out in the open had been building up for some time, and Justin Dean’s final outburst that was the first shot in a messy divorce war was just the last drop that made the bucket to overflow.

I see some relationship lessons for couples here

Communication between couples is very very important. Couples should learn to read between the words when their partner complains or is oddly quiet about something.

Similarly, both parties should learn to set boundaries about expected behaviour early on.

Another lesson is that couples should mind how they take advice on the relationship. Remember that after the dust is settled, it may just be two empty hearts hurting. And the world has moved on to the next hot topic.

Yet another advice is for people to know when to drop pride for the sake of love. From her recent videos, it’s clear that Korra is obviously missing Justin in several ways. I see Justin’s earlier angry outbursts as really cries for help that went unanswered. But which of them is too proud to reach out to the other?

I think (but may be wrong) that in a crashing marriage, there’s normally a short period, a window of opportunity when the divorce or separation is still fresh when both parties can still mend their ways. That’s probably why divorce judges give couples time to settle out of court.

But if the new feelings of apartness are left to solidify, it may become difficult to come back together (unless you have Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck destiny).

My advice (which really isn’t much of an advice)? Both parties may want to see if they can work things out. If they can’t, too bad.
