Mine filed for D right away - I can tell you that you just do what you would normally do. Continue to GAL, be kind when you are in contact with them and otherwise I am dark (no contact). You have to detach and focus on yourself and your life. I joined a divorce group which is helping me rebuild. I still love my exH and if he ever comes out of this fog then at this point I know I will consider my options. I'm still learning to let go, it's still very very new - just saying that D is not the end of the world, it's a piece of paper. Doesn't really change anything. It was just final last Friday and it was just like any other day to me. Didn't resolve anything, didn't make anything worse. We all have to just keep living and move forward. I still have hope that one day he'll figure it out but he's in replay and I know this can last years. Like everyone on here says - you'll know when the time comes, your heart will tell you. Just take it one day at a time.
