The court system that handles divorces is adversarial...very adversarial. It is absolutely awful. I'm sorry that you're headed there. Once you realize, as bad as it is, that it won't kill you...it makes it more tolerable. It's still awful, but it makes it more manageable once you realize that you will survive. I had so much trouble accepting that someone who once cared so much, could now be doing this! But I had to accept it because it was reality. A lot of it was the adversarial court system too. Bad stuff all the way around. Painful stuff...but real, very real. The hatred she had/has for me was hard to get my head around...but I did.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
