Quote: My W did not want to D for so long because she was not sure that that is what she wanted.
I've never bought into that. Or as D as a means to reconcile or start over. My personal feeling is once they've started down the path to separation or divorce, they are done, they want out and why they stall, I have no idea.
I would not try to stall her. Merely make your feelings known, this is all you can do. "I recognize you want this and feel like this is what you need, but I do not want the divorce and feel like any problems we have are solvable."
Something like that. When X told me she filed, I said I know you want this, but I do not.
