Had an IRL friend recommend "Rolling in the Deep" tonight. Okay, some of the lyrics fit:
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go 'ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there
As mine sure won't be shared
I'm still partial to the lyrics in the background of the chorus:
You're gonna wish you
Never had met me

Be firm and fair. I went through mediation and never once made him question my intent to go to trial if he was screwing with me. Good luck and much mojo sent to you.

Rollin' in the Deep has been one of my anthems in keeping my courage up during this divorce. May it give you the same courage & intestinal fortitude!
While we never did mediation, we did go to court. I kept a beaded bracelet in my hand that has certain beads representing certain things (Christ, strength, honesty, courage, various "fruits of the spirit"). It helped me keep my thoughts centered on character & integrity, and so the fears just didn't have any room in my head! May you also find your thoughts centered & calm.

I went through mediation and never once made him question my intent to go to trial if he was screwing with me.
That is EXACTLY the attitude I'm going in with today. I'm still pissed I spent $5000 on a mediating puppy dog lawyer who always wanted to strike a deal with his emotionally abusive ass and let him walk all over me. I'm so glad I've been forwarding all of FuckTard's texts and emails to my new lawyer and his assistant. I spoke with the ladies in his office yesterday before my lawyer showed up, and they were telling me how they couldn't believe what a bipolar ass he is.. I said, "I know, what am I supposed to do?" And one of them was like, "Punch him in the face." Then she laughed, but she knows it's not funny..
Good luck and much mojo sent to you.
Thanks again everyone. I'm nervous! But I'm feeling so much better with my new lawyer. Like I can stand behind him and let him deal with the POS..
I will keep the fruits of the spirit in mind, Nature_Girl. Thanks for that. I have a necklace cross and a bracelet that I wear to remind me to stay calm and centered and let God take control. Though I'll probably take a Xanax before I go too

Good luck, BG.

BG - If it helps, picture all of us standing behind you, arms crossed and staring down STBX. And, of course, sporting killer bitch boots.
