I said that I was going to fight for my marriage and wasn't going to hand him a divorce.
Hello Six - Im also very sorry that you are here.
I read through your story, and this line really struck me. What do you mean by this? If he wants a divorce, what are you going to do, chain him up so he cant file for one? drag it out to eternity in courts? What benefit does this kind of thing have for you?
Im all for protecting yourself and your children. But if he is set on divorce, what are you going to do directly?
In my opinion, the only way back is him realizing he made a mistake. Focus on you and work on you. Become a person only a fool would leave.
