From everything I have read here, books, listening to people, yes I do. Will it happen, no one knows. But you yourself just said "I have faith good things CAN happen, which is why I won't give up,". So you are answering yourself you really believe it also. Continue your thoughts that it can, just realize it is not right now. She thinks your holding it up, but she hasn't served you yet so she sounds a little bit confused. Use that time to your advantage.
I have the original paperwork, but that was just for temporary orders. Maybe she just doesn't understand that those aren't the actual papers. I'd love to be able to use this time to my advantage, but I don't have any advantage to be gained. I thought I could at least get her to meet with me and talk with me a little so we could clear some things up. But, she won't even budge that much.
She thinks if she gives in one inch, that I win. I don't get that - if our family stays intact, we ALL win. We all lose in divorce, and the one who loses the worst is S4!!! That's what I can't believe. I can't believe she won't give it a tiny chance for his sake. To keep his parents together. I mean, I know I wasn't there for her in many ways, but is it really worth divorce? Does she really believe I did this to her on purpose? I really hope she understands that I didn't.
If she really wants it done, maybe she'll just come talk to me a few times. I'd call her, but with the PO in place, I can't even do that. So, we continue to wait...
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
