Of course it's not just a paper, maybs. It's something we had to fight for, so we don't take it lightly.
This is exactly it. I know technically it doesn't have the be "the end". But at the same time we got married before it was legal here. We had to literally go to a different country to get married and it was a big deal for us. We went and did it somewhere that it was legal because it was important to us to have a recognized marriage. We went at did it so that it would be recognized by the government. And we went and did it without family and without most of our friends because it was that IMPORTANT to both of us that it be legal.
The first time that it was federally recognized (for like all 13 hours in early 2014) she called me from Korea crying because she was so happy that it was finally recognized. Last year when it became legal she said it was like the happiness of our wedding day all over again.
So I feel like that's mostly why I'm so upset. It's something that we did fight for and we fought friends and we found family because it was something we both felt so strongly and passionately for and now she's just throwing it away like it didn't even matter.
I agree that her saying negative things about cow is good. I agree that she does feel trapped. I agree the A won't last. But unfortunately I'm sure that this divorce will go through, probably on Monday, before she's able to see any of those things for herself.
