My attny said something to me early on and it made LOTS of sense. He said (obviously) the legal side of divorce is not the same as the emotional side of divorce. He told me that you need to handle the legal side as if there is no way in hell your marriage will be saved. PERIOD. But you have to start thinking in a legal sense and stop thinking about "saving the marriage".
I think this is outstanding advice. Thanks.
