Preserving the Sanctity of Marriage

The judge assigned to us (to handle our divorce case) has not even opened the floor for me to speak. or asked me why I wanted a divorce, and August will be our third hearing. Every case he handles, he will ask the husband to reconcile with the wife, and postpone the hearing to a next date: for the parties to discuss, to pave the way forward, and to stay married for a month or two longer.

Go figure. 

In the previous session on 10 June, a wife had asked for divorce from a husband brought into court in prison coveralls AND the judge gave them another date for a reconciliation hearing. Because the husband did not agree to divorce. So many useless husbands, so little time. 

I get his point, every marriage is precious & worth saving.

However, I wished he would at least let us say a word or two. Obviously we didn't wake up one day and decided to divorce. Something would have happened to trigger that divorce petition. Is he not curious to know what that something was?

Well I will let things take its course. There's a good reason that he's the judge and not me.
