Paul, I agree with the others about taking a break now and making sure this is really what you want. Your sitch is barely 2 months old, I really feel like before you can be prepared for D you have to be completely detached and able to look at your sitch almost like you're viewing it from the outside looking in rather than from the inside. I think a lot of people rush a D through too early in their sitch because they think it'll bring them closure and allow them to move on. BUT IT WON'T! Only detachment will get you there, and divorce is NOT detachment. So slow down, take a deep breath, give yourself some time to sort through your thoughts. Like we always say, this is a marathon, not a sprint. You have plenty of time, use it effectively.

Thanks AS. I will remember that I need to slow things down and see how the situation of developing before making any rash moves. W and I spoke. She's in a lot of pain. I felt bad, but it her's to deal with. I told her I'm working on me and keeping my kids safe and healthy...
