I know that this is the best thing for me emotionally and financially. I think that my head has accepted it, but it's hard to convince my heart that this is the way it is supposed to be. I still love my H, but I know part of me was holding on for the wrong reasons. I wanted my life back with my H, but that life is over and this guy isn't my H. I didn't want to be divorced, but I do deserve a better life and I am going to find it. I will take everything that I learned in this experience. Things like these make people better or bitter. I am choosing better...I will continue to pick up the pieces of this broken life and heart and hope for a better life than I ever dreamed of.
Mike, Can you give me an idea of how much time/cost the attorney should want to spend going through the papers? They are only about 5 pages long and nothing seems very complicated to me. I think that they are fine, and like you said I am not planning on rocking the boat with my H unless the attorney seems really concerned. I am not going to tell H that I consulted an attorney. My H changed the papers out of guilt. Maybe he still has a little bit of a heart. He knows that I would have a hard time staying in my house if he wanted his 50%. He also knows that if he fought me, I would never have anything to do with him. Maybe he is trying to salvage a little bit of dignity with the hopes that I won't hate him.
