"Am I being naive to think that she just printed the papers and consulted a lawyer for the sake of covering her bases in case we don't work out? Should I just keep this information to myself and continue on with detachment and getting my own life in order rather than confronting? Of course, I'll have to consult a lawyer now and probably should have done so sooner."

Before I went LRT with my W, I had all my papers printed out and ready to file. All I had to do was take it to the courts, pay the money and have the W served. I filled the papers out because I was hurt and angry. If I didn't calm down and tell the W how I felt at that time, I could have easily filed and who knows where I would be right now.

I told my W I was going to file in May, but I don't think she knows that all the paperwork is already filled out. There is no reason to tell her this. It would put her on the defensive.

Continue to detach. That is for you.

How do you think a D would play out? Amicable D or a fight? If you think it is going to be a fight, then consulting a lawyer would be smart.
