Would you be mad if your spouse wanted a divorce BUT...?

you didn't want one and want to make mends. She's/he's indecisive on her decision and has began talking to other persons, nothing sexually but they may have invited them over for a movie.

Remind you they have already moved out, so you two live in separate houses have mutual friends, can sometimes have a civil conversation but he/she is still shows their true colors from time to time reminding you of the reason you left. one 19 month old is involved.

Update:

It's been 2 wks since you lived in one household together.

    Most divorces are not mutual. One person wants out while the other wants to stay true to their vows, 99% of the time.

    With that said, if someone wants out, you cannot stop them. Eventually you will hae to concede. it will hurt badly but in time you'll realize they were never really committed to you if they could walk out on a marriage.

    That's a sticky situation but it sounds like both sides should move on with their lives and only work together as parents for the sake of the child. It's not always easy ending something that you believe so strongly but both parties should put their feelings aside and focus on the child. Especially if one person has already started showing interrest in others....it's time to let go despite the hurt in might cause. Just remember all wounds heal with time.

    If they are living in separate houses and one wants a divorce,... then there's not much that's going to reverse this course of events....no matter how much you would wish it otherwise.

    Oh, and just because there is a 19 month kid involved, is no reason why they should stay together. It sounds like one of them thought having a child would fix a crappy marriage.

    Gee, I wonder how surprised she was to find out that this was just not true. Wish I could have been there to see the look on her face.

    I guess I would be upset for a while if I still loved them but in reality only one person has to want a divorce. You can slow it down, but you can't stop it from happening. You have to realize that you deserve to be with some one that loves you and if some does not love you... let them go.

    they have obviously moved on, especially if they are inviting someone else over to their place. you can't make them stay with you just because you don't want it to end, it is their decision too. if they want to leave & get a divorce, that's their choice. so, you need to do the same... get the divorce and start working towards healing and becoming happy. in divorce court they will help you decide the custody of the baby.

    I would be heartbroken but if he didn't want to be with me then there would be nothing I could do about it. I would just move on too.

    This is confusing? Who left, you or him?

    If he's seeing other women, you must be pretty naive if you think there's nothing sexual involved.

    I would be heartbroken. I would stop playing games and move on though.
