My H filed for divorce and I still am holding out hope. People think I'm nuts but you have to go with what you feel is right for your situation. You can move on without giving up. I hope I am as lucky as Jack is.

i hate to say this but .. honey, hope is not a plan.

i don't know where your thread is and i don't know what you've done. but it is not the DB principle to hope. it's to take action.

Sometimes sadly, people have to go through the finality of divorce to have that true physical space to gain better clarity as to what they had.

is that what you are hoping for? that divorce is going to make him wake up to the reality of not having you around?

you can physically separate and use that time to make changes - do your 180s and GAL. it doesn't mean that a divorce has to happen before you do these things. you do them now.

i do wish you to be as lucky as J3B but i'm sure J3B did more than just hope. he took action.
