My husband just informed me, last night, that his niece is going through a divorce.
Here's the kicker:
She and her husband just finished having a very lavish (and expensive) wedding ceremony a year ago! So many ppl were invited and she was so happy about her marriage and preparations for the wedding.
The reason for this divorce:
Her husband went to Iraq not long after their wedding and met someone else. (Sad, but unfortunately, not uncommon).
The question:
Since she is obviously very upset and beside herself and, though, we're not particularly close, I wanted to extend my apologies, but have reservations. Would she view this as my "rubbing it in" in any way? I find myself walking on egg shells. Or do I just say nothing and wait for "the hurt" to subside?
Oh, one more thing, she lives 600 miles north of me and my husband.
What do you think I should do?
Please, no psarchastic comments or criticisms. I only look for educated insight.
Thanks.
