The first stage is anger. The second stage is bargaining, it's a natural response to anger. The third stage is denial. Stages four through five are depression and fear, while stage six is acceptance. And finally, at the seventh and last stage of divorce grief, you'll move into acceptance—you'll accept that your marriage is over, and you're ready to move on with your life.

Question 2

What does denial feel like in a falling relationship?
