My H filed in April in a rage after I had given his Mom's ring to his son to keep for his granddaughter. Then nothing. I answered, and that was that. Nothing until now, and I'm the one initiating it. Just because a paper comes in the mail, or in my case, by big bald headed deputy, don't give up.
On that same note, although I am ready for this part of the drama to be behind me, it doesn't mean I do not still love and miss the man I married 20 years ago. He just has to complete this part of the journey without me. If it is meant for us to be together again one day, then, well, it will happen. I have to look at it that way. In a certain sense, if my part in this doesn't end soon, I'll only be slowing down any realization/progress he may make, as he will still be able to view me as the albatross around his life. ((HUGS))
