I'm in this through thick and thin because I see the impact this would have on all the people I love. I just don't understand how you could not see the damage this will do.

I absolutely agree. Once H was in the process of filing, which he knew I was against, he tried to just lightly drop the suggestion, "oh, why don't we just file jointly?" I said "absolutely not. If you want to destroy our family, then you do it, I may have to go along with it but I certainly won't initiate it. It will be on your head, not mine."
