Sp, thanks for the info. I don't think Mediation is easy or pro-walkaway S. Matter of fact, I don't know much about it at all (except what you just shared). All I know is that my response when W brought it up bought me (W gave me) a gift of some time last night. And I still refuse to actively participate in initiating the big D, however and whenever the time comes.
Thanks again.
Hi Gardener. I've taken a somewhat similar stance when it comes to D. I will do nothing to make it easy. I don't want S and I don't want D.
I love H, will do anything to work on M, but file legal papers of any kind and everything changes.
H wanted the S, which is a 1 year period in NY, then either party could file for a no-fault D. He claimed he wanted to try and rebuild a R. I told him he was taking an awful big risk if that was what he wanted, because after a year I might just be the one to file. (Deer in the headlights look.)
Also, S means you have to come up with a S agreement. I don't agree. I don't have to agree. I don't have to agree to anything. Said as sweet as pie with honey dripping off of it.
My advice, get out there and go fishing. You will be away and she will have no idea where. And catching a few lunkers will put you in the best mood, I promise.
