This aspect mattered to me a great deal:

"Truly, they want us to do all of the dirty work, i.e., filing for divorce, so that they don't look like the bad guys and they can say "she filed, I didn't".

I told my H that truly I didn't want our M to end and if he wanted to D, he would need to file and I would respect his wish & not contest his application. I have no regrets about that - though it wasn't nice that the D is now based on my unreasonable behaviour. But that it what it is I guess.

Glad you have got into a groove with GAL that is genuinely enriching for you. That's what it's all about I think.

Take care xx
