I told H that we could have a "Bruce and Demi-style" divorce. And I meant it (still do). I figure if I try everything and it still doesn't work out, well I have a choice of how I want my divorce to work. And I used to have the marriage that was the envy of all my friends. If need be, I'll have the divorce that's the envy of all my friends.

Naive perhaps. But yeah, that's a secondary goal (after reconciliation).

And my H's attitude towards me relaxed and improved dramatically after I told him that.

AND... 20% of divorces end in remarriages. So there's always that.

Think of all the presents you'd get at your SECOND wedding!
