[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh come on. I was separated for years before the divorce went through b/c ExDH fought tooth and nail over every microscopic issue (he actually went ballistic at one point over a used stairmaster machine). Divorce would have happened in five minutes if it had been up to me. After a year, i started dating. Should I have let his foot-dragging keep me from moving on romantically? for years?

Sometimes footdragging over a divorce is an abusive effort to control. [/quote]

Again, big difference between this and not telling your spouse you actually want a divorce. Trial separations should end with conversations about permanent status change, not revelations of new relationships.

He said the same thing either way, but there's a way to do this without being an asshat and this ain't it.[/quote]

Likely the DH had made it very clear the marriage was over. He had moved out 8 months the ago! He wasn’t interested in counseling or anything that would indicate he was still working on the marriage. It doesn’t sound like there was much if any sexual intimacy in this marriage. OP may not have wanted to believe it was over but it was over a long time ago. She just can’t accept it.[/quote]
