Punkin, you will be fine - I won't pretend it isn't stressful, but but I had two court sessions, and got the strong impression that my xh was more nervous than me.

I made sure I looked my best on each occasion, and I took a bgf with me for support, and a good lunch/drink afterwards. Judges aren't actually stupid, and they see a lot of middle aged men [and some women] riding off into the sunset with their new love, in search of the fabled happiness that we denied them. They do not automatically believe their lies . . . .

Thanks for visiting my thread. Something has definitely gone 'click' in my brain post divorce, and for the better I think. Hard thought the divorce process is, it enables us to move on, if we let it, and I know you will. Without realising it our xh are doing us a favour in pushing us out the door. They really are nuts, you know. It isn't about us.
