So, it looks like the W wants a D. She can't bring up the nerve to say it, but I know (for a fact) that she does. It's just a matter of time at this point, so I've let go as part of the LRT - of course I still have hope! - and am going to help facilitate this process in the direction that will leave everything as amicably as possible.
Here's my goals: 1. To have the W and I work on the D as much as possible together, without lawyers involved, until we file. I'd like to use lawyers only to settle any items we can't, which will hopefully be few and far between. 2. To avoid either of us getting slapped with papers as a good morning present instead of having a talk where we "decide" to get the big D. 3. And, honestly, to maximize time with the S5 and S2 - she wants full custody and there's no sense in fighting it - while hopefully minimizing CS so I can actually afford to live in the same city as them, and thus remain an active and involved father.
These are my goals. Now, my W is reallllllly angry with me, and really paranoid, and extremely suspicious thanks to GAL and LRT. Check the Get This! thread in INS for the in-depth.
So, my question to all of you is: Do you have any ideas on helping facilitate this process in the manner I listed above?
Don't get me wrong, I don't want a divorce. I just want to make this as easy as possible for her.
