Yeah, most states have “cooling off” periods. My state (TN) is 60 days for marriages without minor kids and 90 with kids. Time begins to toll from time of filing. I’d say probably half my clients still reside with their spouses throughout the divorce process.

Here's a picture of them from after the game. They are both holding on pretty tight IMO.



You can’t always go by that. My wife will occasionally hold or hug me tight, but she doesn’t like me most of the time either.

La is 180 days separate and apart without kids and 365 with kids. You can file at any time (102 divorce filed before separate and apart time has run and 103 filed after you’ve already been separate and apart)

Divorce is awful, especially when the couple have kids. THE most gut wrenching experience of my life was helping my daughter deal with the fallout from betrayal and abandondment by her husband. The pain of that ordeal both on my daughter, my grandchldren (including my wife and I) afflicts and haunts us till this day.

Our culture really grinds up people and marriages.

Oh well...in this picture, the holding looks very mutual, but maybe it's a farce.

Some people can just turn off the hurt, just like switching off a light switch. Others it takes longer.....much longer. The images of pain and anguish in the faces of my grandchildren are etched in my mind. Images like my 8 year old grandson coming out of anesthesia from surgery. He asked for his father, but his father was not there. I had to fill in.

Like I said our culture grinds up people, children, and marriages.

Just because he filed doesn't mean he wasn't cheating.

No one really knows what happened. Truth will probably come out. If it doesn’t, it’s none of our business anyway.

Whatever the reasons, and whoever may be at fault, it is sad for them and the family. I’m sorry to see this happen.

Is enough time for separation before filing


We have 2 different types of divorce - this is a Article 102 divorce which you file before the requisite time has passed. Then you wait the 180 days and then (in most cases) have a hearing to finalize.

There used to be a big difference in time periods that made a 102 more efficient if you knew for sure you were going to finalize the divorce. Now there isn't much difference and, in most cases, a 103 is more efficient and streamlined. But a 102 gets that "relief" from having filed for divorced and the couple is separated at that point. A 102 filing can start the ball rolling on a tentative separation of financial matters (although that is all undone if there is a reconciliation which can be complicated).

It also doesn't mean he was cheating.

I started a thread on this once upon a time, and the question was “ Can a marriage be considered successful if a couple was married for 20+ years, had a family and raised children who are well adjusted , gotten along reasonably well, etc ? Is a marriage necessarily a failure because it ends in divorce? Particularly if one of the parties has an issue that makes life miserable for the other one?

The only reason he would have filed a 102 is if he thought she would not allow him time with the kids (if minors). Otherwise it would be foolish for him to file because she could reconvene and ask for temporary alimony, which terminates 6 months after the divorce is final. It probably was all agreed upon in advance. He did not "give her the house," only exclusive use until the divorce is final. She may get it as part of the property settlement, but that is later.

It's not our place to characterize their divorce. If the divorce is for the best, then it's not sad.



I like this comment.

My parents got divorced when I was a teenager and even as a young person, I knew it was for the best and they were both WAY happier apart.
