I'm just emotionally raw at the moment. A tale as old as time. 40-year-old white woman isn't happy her looks are going and her life is full of responsibilities and she isn't happy, so it must be my fault. She will tell you another story, and boy will she, but that's my take. However, we have two wonderful kids together. I do not have the luxury of giving her the middle finger and never talking to her again. We've got to be Mom and Dad for these kids for life.
Still in the early, early stages of this. She moved out to her sister's, then moved back, now she's moving out for real this weekend. She served me a separation agreement I need to get looked over before I sign. Then it's to mediation to agree on the divorce settlement, then we'll finally file. Then there's a 6 month waiting period, then there will be a divorce decree. I'm hoping not to fight about little things in all of this, but I also don't want to get screwed and, if at any point, you have to get a lawyer to file a motion and do all this in court, it's thousands and thousands of dollars. Trying to stay out of court, but that doesn't mean I can let her walk over me.
It's a goddamn mess and I'm worried as hell about my kids. I hope in the end there is a rainbow of happiness, but I'm struggling to see it. Times like these I wish Louis CK wasn't a serial public masturbator so I could believe this bit more.
