Hey Orchid & Faith ~

Ah... deep breath...

It is so awesome to come here and find your replys on my thread. Your words give me so much comfort. AND coming from others who really know what your going through.

I opened the manilla envelope last night. I took it to my friends house. I just couldn't bear opening something else so soon. I knew I had to open it though in case it was a timely matter. It was some more paperwork (financial stuff) I needed to fill out. Also included was a note just to let me know that H has not been in touch with them.
I'll explain... About four months ago, I received a call from my attorney. She said H had called her wanting to know what was taking so long. He, as far as I still know, doesn't have an attorney. He filled out and filed the D paperwork on his own. Then I retained an attorney. She said she told him then that he hasn't put anything out on the table. He didn't want me to get anything but my car (which I paid for) and my laptop (which was a birthday present from him) She couldn't believe how cold and heartless he was. He was awful when he filed. Right before Christmas, and smack dab in middle of MLC!
So, she hasn't heard anything from him yet.
My friend said just to put the paperwork away for now, as I already have given most everything to her already. She keeps telling me not to focus so much on him, and quit analyzing everything. The projection letter, she feels, was written to pull my chain. The briefcase, she feels, was put there to see if I would notice. She also says to replace that fear with FAITH.
I only wished I could be as positive.
It's hard to be when you see all the c&%p they're doing all around you.
