It's a Nice Day for a White Un-wedding!

Well, I have been separated for over a year and I just survived my first court date: my support hearing, the first step in all of the many legal proceedings to follow.  It was so difficult to just sit and let the opposing council make such slanderous remarks while my hopefully soon-to-be-ex just smiled.  I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that no one was allowed to speak except the judge and the attorneys.


Yes, I picked the nice attorney, (silly me) and he believes in taking the high road, which is how I believe in living life but I am finding this difficult in the divorce realm.  It upset me so much to hear the facts twisted into a horribly grotesque fairytale as I sat there with my mouth legally sealed shut, unable to scream. I even remarked afterwards to my ex that I didn't realize he wrote fiction. 

It's sad to think that a 30-year relationship ends this way. In a conference room with two strange men speaking what seems like a foreign language, a language filled with numbers and dates with no thought to what really matters; lives that were torn apart and emotions.

I think they should make you wear your wedding outfits, after all this is an un-marriage. You could walk in the conference room together and at the end of all of the legal proceedings you would be able to rip your hopefully soon-to-be-ex's clothing to shreds. 

It makes me feel better just thinking about it!
