I'm posting here because there's more traffic. I just need your opinions on what steps to take from here...
I'm having a very bad afternoon. Plan B is great as long as I don't have to know what it going on in WH's world. After weeks of nothing from my attorney, he finally updated me today. Basically, WH is unwilling to agree to the terms of my settlement which includes spousal support and a portion of his property. My formerly caring, loving and very generous H is now gripping his money so tightly without hesitating. He's completely forgotten about his loyal W and her needs. Like WH always said, he wanted this divorce to be "easy and painless." If I agree to WH's terms, then he is getting away everything. He chose to have this A, he chose to move, and he chose to file for D. I had no say in the matter of my marriage. I've had to suffer emotionally and financially because of his selfish decisions.
What do you think I should do? Should I be spending more legal fees to pursue WH -or- should I let him go so he can have an "easy and painless" divorce? Do I let him continue in this fantasy world of his where everything he wants is given to him?
We have a court date in early January so my decision needs to be made very soon.
Thanks for your opinions. I am so confused and hurt by all this yuckiness in my life. Despite what we are all going through, I wish you all a very happy holiday season.
Looking forward to a new chapter since D was finalized on 4/24/07 from WH.
"I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13

If you do not have any hope of saving your marriage, take everything you can - you're entitled to all that and more.
If you have any hope of saving your marriage, take everything you can - keep it out of the clutches of the alien and his moral-less cohort.
