Separated

[ClingingToHope]

Good luck with that. I received a D petition in the mail two weeks ago but still no D has actually been filed. I guess I still cling to hope that the D will never actually happen, but then a few moments later I'll daydream about this being over, being free of some of this debt and being able to look for someone who will love me.

So I'm still up-and-down.

Did you filing for the D shake things up in any way? Did W talk about the D a lot or not?

How did you get her to go to M counseling?

I've stopped asking my W to do anything to work on the M. Last year, I asked her to go to counseling and to a church M thing. She said no on the counseling and said she'd "think" about the M thing.

I finally stopped pursuing in October after she decided against a weekly call to talk about our R.

So one thing I wonder is even if she did start to waver, I'm not showing her routes back to working on the M.
