@sumudu ln Washington State, there is a 90 day cooling off period before any divorce can be finalized. That assumes the parties are amicable, which is not the case here.

Also, when this started, our daughter was still a minor. She’s 18 and graduated from high school now. Finalizing before that would have likely been messy.

At this point, there’s a scheduled trial date, which has other checkpoints along the way. A hearing is scheduled for July to revisit the temporary orders from February, assuming she doesn’t accept the offer I made as part of a discovery request.

Yeah, it‘s ongoing and messy.

@matigo I dunno how long a typical divorce takes in Japan. Mine, where the separation started in early January, may not go to trial until the beginning of December…assuming we don’t settle beforehand.

@matigo The only advice I can give here is: when the right person comes along, you’ll both know it.

@jextxadore this sounds a bit like what I went through in the early phases of my divorce. There was no “stay” option in my case, and the decisions about my things involved what would fit in my Prius. Definitely no going back, either.

Episode 31 of The Lotus Effect is now available and is titled Time, Trolling, and Treasure [lotuseffect.show]. Pheonix and I talk about the truth and the bullshit of Keto.

@matigo I’ve been hemorrhaging money since I separated from my not soon enough ex. Mostly because I’ve had to give most of my paycheck towards supporting her. 😬

Now that I have a more stable living situation in a cheaper part of the world, I’m hoping my living costs will stabilize to something that’s sustainable.

@matigo do we even have hardware that will run those old operating systems?

@matigo It's 32C here right now, but the humidity is thankfully not terrible.

@matigo the lawyer has made the point that fair and equitable does not mean equal. In my experience, it's neither fair or equitable, either. :P
