Down The Divorce Road

[markhaving probs]

I went to court yesterday for the first time. I was treading seeing my W for the first time in 6 months. She was there with her parents, who by the way have not contacted me since we split which was 14 months ago. I said hello out of instinct and politeness, my father-in-law said hello, but my m-in-l just ignored me.

As I sat listening to both sets of lawyers discussing our case, with my W sitting opposite me, I could not help but wonder how it has got to this. 15 years of marriage, two children, ups and downs of everyday life, and now she won't even talk to me - like two strangers with no history whatsoever.

I hear she is now involved in another R and wants things resolved as quickly as possible. I feel very depressed and cannot help but think about her and the children. I feel very isolated and lonely, she walked away from our M without any regret or emotion.

To everybody out there trying to DB, do so with everything you have got. It's all about the long game - patience, patience, patience.

Can anybody offer me some comfort as I have trouble seeing any light at the end of an endless tunnel.
