Oh, because after our last mediation, the paperwork goes to the courts and we are divorced. In my mind, that is the finale, like we won't get back together after that.
Oh. Have you read the success stories? Do you understand that D is just a step and not the end of the road? R happens before and after D. There are also remarriages. This being said, it's your choice. You can decide that it's over when the D papers are signed. In general, we don't advocate for a deadline around here. And regardless of when any step occurs, it takes months and months for changes to take hold and be believed by the WAS, so it would take a long time. There's no way to just rush things because you have few mediation sessions left. Play the cards you're dealt.
