Hey gang,

In this country, you have to be S for 12 months before applying for a D. For me, that was 4 months ago.

Brief background
H45
W44 (WAW)
D17
S13
M23
LS done 16 months ago
No affairs
Have no contact since the S

All that's left is to print out the D form, fill it out, attach the marriage certificate, attached the LS, mail it into the courts, they'll get back to you with a hearing date, attend that and it's basically all over.

Anyways, being the LBS, the WAW took off her rings, arranged all the legals amicably, we sold our property and we each own our own houses. Arrangements with the kids work well, they seem to be doing well, getting good grades, socializing and generally well balanced. I never see or contact WAW and neither does she.

Time to apply for the D is 5 months overdue and I'm thinking about doing it myself. However, none of this was my idea so why should I.

I see this sometimes on here. WAS's happy to remain legally M but carry on with a completely separated life and never look like pursuing a D.

Why don't they finish what they started?

God Bless,
Suit
