Choosing to mediate

wishuponastar

I think a lot of people don't know enough about what their options are when it comes to divorce. Find out what is required in the state where you're filing, but also find out what your options are like mediation or amicable divorce.

I can't see that happening with me. Hubby said hubby really doesn't think i deserve it. Just because i was a stay at home mom for 20 years doesn't mean anything to him. Married 23 years and he is tried of supporting me.

Hi wishuponastar!

Just went to see a lawyer, to get some information concerning the law & options here in Washington state. Glad I did! The papers will be filed this coming Monday.

I am hoping that this "event" will be amicable. That would help. Make the whole experience easier to get through.

And am I on an emotional roller coaster!! Are you experiencing anything like that?
