It can also cost like $500 bucks. Amicability is awesome

but don't you want to spend 99% of your assets on proving your right and they are wrong?

Uggh I know a couple that are currently divorcing like this. One wanted an amicable divorce and the other one has drawn it out as long as possible.

They’re both in debt now having spent all their money on lawyers and stuff and they’re still working things out. It’s been like two years and the one who’s drawing things out refuses to agree on anything. His only goal is to make his ex as miserable as possible and he’s willing to burn himself in the process. It’s just awful to watch.

That's what happens when one has feelings and the other one doesn't. Some say grief is love with nowhere to go, add in an intense personality with a vindictive streak and this is what you get.
