Hubby has told me that he wants to separate and had printed out separation papers a few months ago. He wants me to go to a lawyer to file my own papers as he does not have the money for a lawyer.
My question, does it matter who files? He is the one that wants to divorce/separation; where by I want to work on this relationship and get back into counseling. On one hand I feel if he's given up, what is the point of me trying to make it work???
I originally feel that if he wants to separate he should file the papers. However, because he has no money for a lawyer he wants me to--to ensure "I won't think he's taking advantage of me" if he files without a lawyer.
