[quote=Anonymous]DH’s aunt raised him and is—or was—his mother in every sense. She was also a miserable, territorial manipulator who delighted in turning people against each other. She caused terrible tension and fights between DH and I over our 7 year marriage. She got worse after we had children. They are now ages 7, 6, and 4. DH, himself, is a male version of her. It took me a while to realize it.

A month ago, I asked DH for a divorce after a particularly bad year of almost nonstop fighting over this woman. If there are 10 reasons to divorce, his aunt and his failures regarding her were reasons 1-8. DH doesn’t want the divorce, but had planned to move out. As it turns out, coronavirus hit and we were all stuck sheltering in place. I continued strategizing with my lawyer.

His aunt refused social distancing, carried on as usual, caught the virus, and died last week. Now, I am in a bind. DH is inconsolable. It seems cruel to file now, but I’ve already set things in motion. My sister thinks there might be hope now that the main reason for our divorce is dead. But I am not sure my feelings about DH can come back and I have already wasted so many years with this man. WWYD?[/quote]
