What sucks right now for me, is that [he] is the one who asked for a divorce 3 times, and I've wanted one since the first year we were married. I thought when we first got married he just needed to grow up, but needless to say that didn't happen and NEVER will.
The problem I'm having now, is that he WON'T go to the courthouse and sign the divorce papers, :( which pretty much sucks for me. He is now saying that I'm trying to screw him somehow. I can't afford a lawyer or a mediator, and I just don't know what to do...
I'm so unhappy...If anyone has any good advice, I would truly appreciate it...
Wish you were here...

I agree...someone you know who understands the situation should be able to either help you out or point you in the right direction...it's not fair for him to drag his feet and make you miserable. I hope you can find a wa to get out and move onNeed a tour Travel Agent??? Pick me :-)
Whatever you are, be a good one --Lincoln0 -

it wasn't even a consideration to mess with the closing of her house... just a bit of sweet justice that I have all the power at the moment..I guess you could say I AM playing games...I told her I wasn't going to my lawyer twice, that I wanted a new divorce agreement to sign at the same time...game? maybe, but I want to get this done NOW, before she becomes a homeowner. it's been long enough.
Today, for the first time in a loooong time, I felt a twinge of jealousy :( She bought a house just down the road from the house I grew up in...was talking to my daughter about her mom's new house, and it dawned on me that the kids will be growing up in MY old 'hood, strolling as a family down my old street n whatnot...between that, and having to comfort my girl thru another bout of tears over 'not wanting two houses anymore', I was a bit bummed :( ...But I guess it's kinda cool that the kids will be going to the same schools I did...I'll still get to see them there

Thanks for the kind words. It's been a tough couple of months. Last weekend was so rough I ended up in the hospital Tuesday morning. I know it'll get easier and I just have to take it day by day.0

I'm finally ready to admit it's over.
It'll be a long waiting process, though. We both have moved to different states and have to wait for residency. I think the soonest we can file is October.
Doesn't really matter, I'm not talking to him anyway and we are living completely separate lives.
No kids, thank goodness, but I'm gonna miss my doggies.
I wish all the best to everyone else going through this.I carried a watermelon0
