Tried to link this from asktrp, ended up cut/paste. Looking for advice. Orig post: Her: I want a divorce Me: what? (Butthurt) Start working through that and decide to see a lawyer . start coming around to the idea and she has a change of heart. I have had no such change. So I find myself in the fortunate? position of getting a divorce and having some time to prepare . already have lawyer, small amounts of cash are misplaced, her ring(10k spent foolishly) she took off and I've relocated it. I know I can't get rid of all the suck , but are there other things that could help take some of the sting out? I'm reading the side bar, etc( actually explains a lot of the disconnect I had between how I think and how I'm supposed to think)
