6 months in the storm

[ep0215]

Just got off the phone with STBXH – he was pissed! I answered and said hello, the first thing out of his mouth was “is this how this is going to play out?”

Me: I am not sure what you are talking about
H: I just got a letter from L stating your offers. Are you kidding me? We will just quite the collaborative process right now and go to litigation.
Me: I can tell your upset and we can talk about this when you calm down

He then proceeded to cry to me that he is going into debt to pay for this divorce and how is he supposed to live if he gives me what I want? Blah, blah, blah. (I am not concerned one bit how he can pay for this divorce) I stayed so calm, y’all! I am so proud of myself. I said that I had every right to ask for what I want out of this divorce and so does he; he can submit his offers and the negotiations can continue. He is willing to give up on the collaborative process yet again because I didn’t give him what he wanted without thinking of me. Why do I want to stay married to this man? Called L but he hasn’t called me back. This just goes to show that he made a rash decision and filed for divorce without even considering what the lifelong implications were.
