I saw my husband unhappy & I went into FIX IT mode. It hurts to see the one you love hurt and I wanted nothing more than to fix it, make it better, make it normal. I researched attorneys, trolled on the father's rights web sites. Found a "father's rights" attorney- its all he did I learned more about divorce and what happens after than I ever cared to know. I thought my brother's divorce was the worst. Then I learned what we were up against. Has anyone read "The Sociopath Next Door"? We were dealing with several at once. So much happened & nothing happened. Over the course of a year we drained our savings, got more people involved than I would have liked and what happened????
Two lawyers had a pissing contest.
One parent got a lot less than what they wanted.
One parent was finally able to prove the true motive of the other.
The whole thing damn nearly cost us our lives.
I'm still wondering, a year later, did I do the right thing? Did we do the right thing? Was anything gained?
Sometimes, when your going through a shitty time you say to yourself, it will all be worth it in the end. Well, we are at the end and while there has been a lot of healing going on I am still wondering if it was worth it.
I hate that.

Thanks for visiting my blog -- I look forward to reading yours and already know you've got a great sense of humorous --
That should have said "humor "
Praying that with time the answer to your lingering question will be clear.
