I feel terrible for anyone going through this......It's very frustrating and hurts a lot. Hang in there!

Try not to look at all the bad and this is all doom and gloom. There is good in this although it may seem remote at this time. You get an opportunity to go shopping again. You know more what you want and you will make a better choice next time around ultimately giving you a more enjoyable life. I went through this 28 years ago. At the time it was horrible but it allowed me to find my present wife who I have been very happy with for 20 years. I avoided the mistakes I made so young. So divorce was good for a fresh start. Once she was out of my life and the paper work done, life was good again.

Don't get into a pissing match over the belongings. It's much better to get her out and be done than pay the lawyers. This worked for me...

List all the belongings. List things like "bedroom set", washer and dryer" etc. Hand her the sheet and say pick what you want and alternate choosing. You may even find that you are swapping items once the choosing is done. You won't get all that you want but it will be done and you can replace anything else. Hand the list to your lawyer and have them enter it in the property settlement....then move on.

I wish you the best of luck.
