Well it happened. I was served with papers this morning. stbxw and I had been working so well together on things regarding the D. We had decided to rent out our house, we'd been talking and not arguing. I felt we were making real progress with good cooperation. Then, bad, 6:45am, some guy knows on my door, hands me a stack of papers and more or less runs away.
I have to say I was a little taken aback and hurt. I mean, I know this is real and at some point the D will be final. I've come to terms with that. But I'm still feeling hurt that she wouldn't tell me she was filing. I wouldn't have done that. I guess I continue to learn from her.
Should I be concerned? Should I now start acting as if "game on" and run everything past an attorney? Can I not call her now to discuss things w/o worrying that anything I say/do might be taken as an offer? This [censored].
