Sorry he is being such an @rse. I cant work out for the life of me why though. Even I know that defending a divorce petition, whilst poasible, is a costly exercise in futility and then saying he would accept adultery but not unreasonable. What is he playing at?
Let him have his small petty victory. Let him bask (spelling ?) in it. You will be a divorced woman happily getting on with your life. To steal DVs excellent phrase “King is douchbags in Douchbag land”
You are right, file under adultery. It is a means to an end.
I just wanted to say what wonderful boys you have raised. They are a testament to you. I hope my girls grow up to have the moral fortitude.
