Not even married a year- hopeless?

[ForGump]

Well, now you know roughly how it'd work. If you have big assets (house, bank account, cars), you could wind up fighting over it. So you might think about that. These are things you can talk to a lawyer about in the initial consultation.

But most importantly, take a deep breath. Figure out what it is that you want for yourself, what kind of a partner you want. I've been spending a lot of time thinking about how it is that I got into the marriage I did, how did I pick the kind of person I did, what were my shortcomings in the marriage, how will I do things differently going forward.

You want to take your next step with eyes wide open and with some sense of peace. Don't feel cornered.
