Did I Screw Up?

[Jen1967]

fooled again, thank you for the advice. it is very hard to move forward because he does bait me, but also because i feel like he shows no sign of missing me or caring at all. and i fear he takes it as a message i don't need or want him.

i don't know how to show i am not stopping progress with his settlement papers sent to my L. i don't want to file. i don't think he will because then it will be litigated. he wants me to respond with a counter offer out of court and eventually we will come to an agreement we both sign that we then file with the court. no trial necessary. convenient for him, not wise for me. i won't do it that way. but i don't know how to look like i'm doing some kind of legal move forward so he doesn't think i'm holding him up. i am starting to wonder if i'm wasting my time. he seems like his mind is made up.

i'm talking to L tomorrow. maybe we could counter with a ridiculously high offer.
