Are you going to fight this divorce? What options do you have? I requested lawyers fees and a three month extension with the express purpose to see if we can reconcile. And then I told H, "You know, you don't have to respond." He asked what that meant and I explained to him (as my lawyer explained to me) that he doesn't have to respond. He doesn't have to answer. It can just sit there as long as I don't question where the response is, which I won't. I made that clear. I will not question why you have not answered. H asked "Then what?" I said in one year from my response it will be thrown out due to lack of prosecution. Bye bye. H also knows he can remove the filing all together. At this point, H has done nothing. I hope it stays that way....really I hope he removes it.
And do you want to know what I'm doing now? Sitting still. And since I've been still, things have never been better. H even said last night "if this girl (taps my knee) had been here the whole time, we would've been fine" or something to that effect.
Sit still, even if you respond. Sit still.
Fight, yes but what that looks like I don't know. My situation is different Stronger. I left her a year ago. If she moved on and no longer loves me, what's the point in fighting. I mean am I fighting OM for her love? Am I fighting against what she ultimately wants, which is to be rid of me. Hard to know what to do. mMaybe I'm just letting her go, that's all.
