Not sure what you mean by your last two sentences? Yes, it is separate from the legal process of divorce logistically, but emotionally, it's all a part of the same process for me. You seem frustrated and I don't understand why? |
I think maybe tisha meant that you are saying or at least said before that you are divorcing or in a process of divorce or going through divorce. But if you didn’t file, you are not in a process of divorce at all. My ex husband and I lived apart separated for a year before we filed, we never said we are in a process of divorce or divorcing until we actually filed for divorce. Separation and divorce isn’t the same thing. Many people actually reconcile after separation. You aren’t divorcing your husband yet.
I’d not be negotiating with him. Unless you want to stay separated for awhile which is actually a valid option, I’d file for divorce
