LO, hugs to you. It must be hard to find out that he sees an attorney. That may not mean much, though, OR if may mean a lot. Either way, he is doing the talk in this sense. Just prepare yourself and know what your options are. You two are still civil to each other, so you can just work out what you is fair or what your needs are and you can discuss this with your H, I think? when he brings it up. Personally I believe lawyers makes things worse if the couple can still talk to each other and work out the D details. But I am not here to give legal advice. Just take care, things can change any minute. DETACH!!!!
