To me, I guess standing meant allowing him to do the work whether or not a Divorce was iminent.
That's what it means to me too. However the fact that he is moving forward with the D means that I have to take part in that process and it goes against everything I believe in (or want to do). I've been stalling but he is just using that as more ammunition. I don't actually feel I know what is the 'right thing to do' anymore. By having to play my part in the D I am helping him to achieve what he wants at the sacrifice of my own feelings. No amount of GALing can compensate for that.
