Your C sounds like an idiot. Typical "people need to do what makes them happy... crap" how r u feeling blah blah.... Run from that one. She will only support your WAW's wanting to run away to be happy. Remember your C is not an expert on your R. Unless she's a psychic she has no way to know what is going to happen.
YOU can make this as fast and as slow a process as YOU feel COMFORTABLE with. If you contest it can take up to 2 years. No court will rush a divorce if the kids are being cared for period.
Stand your ground man!! Hold the line!! Just do it with strength and honor!! Do not be a jerk be nice and matter 0f fact. Let her know you will not fold.
I fought for 2 years and got joint physical custody after all the threats and blah.. blah... in the end I had to let her go. She had moved on to some jerk that was telling her everything she wanted to hear regardless of what was best for our daughter. It reminded me of the scene in War of the worlds w Tom Cruise having to let his son go.... After you have put up a good fight, at least a year or 2 sometimes it's better to let it go... YOU have to be the one to decide that. But YOU are only starting your FIGHT my friend. Just remember to always take the higher path. Dont fight dirt w dirt. My X tried making false claims w child services n calling her school, blah... the truths all came out in the end in the form of the guardian ad litem writing a report recommending to the court that I get full custody. So in my case staying on the higher path paid off.
