Well, it's finally happening. WH came by today and told me he has seen an attorney and will be bringing the papers by tomorrow. I have agreed to move ou to my parents' within the next two weeks, as we will be selling the house.
As sad and weird as it is, it is also a relief - I can move on and stop living in limbo and emotional turmoil.
He, of course, has still been contacting the OW on a regular basis and has no intention of ever stopping. In fcat, he plans on taking our daughter to NC to see her daughter in May.
So, I think this is for the better. Why continue to postpone the inevitable?
Now begins the weird task of going through personal belongings, packing up, etc...whew....

He's not going to have you served?
Are you going to sign a waiver of service?
Do you want a divorce?
I have agreed to move ou to my parents' within the next two weeks, as we will be selling the house.
Why?
He, of course, has still been contacting the OW on a regular basis and has no intention of ever stopping. In fcat, he plans on taking our daughter to NC to see her daughter in May.
If he is filing for divorce, he cannot take her out of state (usually) without a specific written agreement from you. Once a divorce is filed, there are certain temporary orders which go into effect.
Also, I would hope that you will not allow ANY contact between the ow/family and you children until adivorce is FINAL.
I think this is for the better.
So you are happy for a divorce?
Why continue to postpone the inevitable?
Who says it inevitable?
Did you know that 20% of divorces filed, never reach a final resolution? They just never complete the divorce nor do they withdraw the papers.

You sound a lot like me... or I sound a lot like you. All except for the ow thing. I don't want to be without my H. This was a shock to me. I feel for you. Just be strong and believe in yourself. Be careful with the children / out of state / visit business. Take care.
