[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’be previously only been on this section of DCUM as a reader.

Short version of events - DH and I have slowly grown apart and for whatever reason(s), he’s suddenly in a hurry to move out and call it quits on the marriage.

I’m completely blindsided and have no idea how long this takes or what my options are. Obviously i need to find a lawyer, but I’m still scrambling here and maybe a little hopeful still that the relationship is salvageable.

Can someone take pity on me and give me a crash course on time timeline in VA for separation, divorce, etc. And how much i could low things down if I’m dragging my feet?

I need to get things squared away financially (I’m not even working right now) and we’re also not that far from being empty nesters to where the impact on the kids would be significantly reduced. The youngest kid has some special needs and it will be hard for me to work the type of hours I’d need to until she’s out of the house (2 years)

Any advice is welcome[/quote]

I don’t understand how you can really be blindsided if you knew that you and your spouse were growing apart.  Isn’t divorce a natural consequence of growing apart over a period of time?[/quote]
