Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.

Monkey,

I am unfamiliar with the laws where you are, however, I do know that other states in that area have made divorce much harder in recent years.

I guess my question to you are...

How would you benefit by dragging it out?

What "man" would you be showing her and the world if you do that?

How does making it more difficult reflect the man that you aspire to be in comparison to the man that you were?

Do the words in the petition really matter all that much?

Well, it has been some time...

I'm divorced now and the "drama" has come to an end. I am profoundly happy and thankful for that. I am also profoundly thankful for those of you that stood by me on those "dark nights".

To those of you just arrivng...hang in there and listen. You will get through this and life will once again be good!

Peace

It is good to hear the drama is over. Keep us up to date if anything changes between the two of you, if you are willing. It would be interesting to know if your W's behaviour changes in the coming months.

And yes... dogs REALLY do like bacon... I think they might be on to something... grin
