Our first D hearing is Tuesday at 9 A.M. My atty says it is just for the judge to find out where everything stands with the divorce proceedings. He says that Judge will probably set up mediation. I want to try and slow things down and I have informed my atty but he doesn't always do what I ask him to do.

Anyone know what I can do to slow things down why the WW is still with OM and I am still standing on this marriage be reconciled and restored?

Help. Also, is there anyway I could get the Judge to force counseling on us. I belive if she will go that she will start to change - I am talking about Christian Counseling.

Joe:

Hi. I have not read all of your story but, I will tell you this. If your wife is truly committed to a divorce there is very little you can do.

What I suggest at this point is that you cut the best financial and legal deal you can.

It is very unlikely that she will change, change her mind or go to counseling. This is probably more true if she initiated the divorce proceedings.

Facing these things is truly difficult. While I initiated the divorce with my EXWW, it is still painful.

I think you should try to move on with your life. Do what is best for you. I thought that for a long time I would never get over my feelings and pain. But, I did. You can too.

First and foremost, take care of JoeCM.

Best to you!
