Husband Filed for Divorce Today

[Jessica M.]

I am handling everything a lot better now. We are still in a very confusing place. Our first hearing is next Monday. I want to ask him to put the divorce on hold until I can get an attorney. I'm on a waiting list for a pro bono attorney. I'm terrified that it's going to turn into a huge mess.

He's at his parents house right now. His parents got my stepkids for the week so he went over there to see them and he won't be back until tomorrow after work.

I'm trying to work on changing myself. He's noticed a few things but I think he thinks certain things are just because I'm trying to get him back. I told him I'm just trying to work on myself.

Any advice?
