This is a pretty accurate assessment of what will transpire...as is JenTay's "two fighting dogs" analogy.

So stay away and become a neutral party. Allow either to come see you if they desire, and lend a compassionate ear.

We have many in our circle who are divorced (but not recently). But no matter how amicable the break-up, one party cannot resist tossing a few well-placed "jabs" about the other in a conversation...
