Divorce Support Forums: How do you slow the divorce process down

I know I am the LAST person to give advice, but my heart does go out to you. I know how you feel. You can contest the divorce, dragging it out, but make sure it is what you really want. If you have not already, I urge you to try a REPUTABLE certified, therapist asap. From a personal mistake, I would only use a Psychiatrist with a PHD. A social worker nearly destroyed my husband, claiming to be a therapist, but that is a different story. Anyway, dragging out the divorce will of course cost ridiculous amounts of money. There are two ways it could go, he could realize he made a tragic error, and come back, or it could just drag out the heartache. The reason I suggest the therapist, is that you really need to search your innerself to find out why you truly want him to stay. Even if he does come home, the trust is gone, and once they cheat, believe me, it is a lot easier to repeat the process. Mine out of nowhere filed for divorce, I really was blindsided as we don't believe in it, and never talked about it. After two months of a horrific court battle he stopped the divorce and returned. Once again, out of nowhere. Now, two years later, the process is about to repeat itself. I wish I had known then, what I have learned through therapy and self discovery. My heart really does feel for you. There is no pain like this, worse to me than the death of my mom and friends. Unless you have been there, you can't even imagine it. I know things will work out for the best for you though as hard as if feels now.
