I have been divorced and no relationship with my daughters father for over 10 years. I have been single all this time. Focused on my daughter, my job and myself. I also knew what I wanted from a relationship and honestly, am still in love with someone I have been best friends with and known for a very long time. He is married and we might exchange a "how are you and the famy" messages a couple times a year. I knew he was happily married and that we would never be together but was happy with myself and my life so I was fine. Well, about 11 months ago he calls me, and tells me he and his wife separated, they are getting a divorce and I am the love of his life. He has his kids 3 days a week and does holidays, birthdays etc. with them. We talk daily, text daily and see each other from once to a few times a week. Things feel comfortable, easy and well...right with him. My only issue is he still hasn't filed for divorce. At first he just said there was a lot to sort out financially. Then he had to wait for taxes to get filled in October. Now it's still not filed because all of his assets are complicated but his account is working on it? My divorce was agreed with no assets, I did the paperwork myself so I don't know how this works. How long is reasonable to gather info before any filing? I do have to note that he has never lied to me about a single thing. Any advice or insight is appreciated
