Just figured i'd update if anyone is watching...I had a consult with a L today. Only trying to look out for my best interest. Anyways, I walked in with the intention of letting L know how I felt about D, that I was willing to drag my feet as long as possible, and I would give up anything to make sure I at least still have somewhat of a relationship w/ stepdaughter. An hour and half later, I walked away feeling like I had just been run over by a train. L basically said to get out ASAP, that I deserved more, don't sell myself short, and that it was better to find out know rather than later.
I said i respected her as MY attorney, but I still believe in my marriage, that I won't stop fighting for it, and the risk of being too old to have a family of my own if this doesn't work is worth every second if I can make my marriage work. At the very least, I will be able to sleep at night knowing that I did everything possible to make my marriage work. If this is going to end, no one, me included, is going to say that I took the easy way out and gave in to the big D.
