The worst day in my life was when my lawyer told me to come get the papers and deliver them to STBX (who had initiated the divorce but not filed)-I called STBX who flew into a rage and said your lawyer needs to be talking to my lawyer-I called my parents hysterical because I didn't know anything about protocol-they told me to call my lawyer and explain STBX's outburst and that I needed to stay away from him. This was one week from our 30th anniversary so my emotions were all over the place! I went to my lawyer signed my part and my lawyer handled it. (probably cost extra-but well worth it) At that point I was so upset my parents had told me to come stay with them and bring Daisy Mae. Anytime you need a lawyer to see you promptly walk into their office with a 90 pound 3 year old lab excited to see anyone. I was in and out of there quickly-Daisy did wait in the car then. Daisy made it the best day ever as she had the time of her life as we drove thru Atlanta and Chatanooga-(she is a country girl)
Long story to say please ask your lawyer for someone else to serve him the papers!
First off, love your name and pic!! I think the Phoenix represents us all well and what we are all going thru.
Anyways, my STBX served me himself. He didn't tell me ahead of time, but I guessed it before he gave me the papers. He was nervous and hesistant to give me the papers and he was so concerned I wouldn't sign that I received them. If I didn't sign then he would have had to have someone to serve me which would have cost more money. Maybe he was more worried about having to pay someone than he was about ending our marriage! Luckily for him, I was amicable I suppose. By the time he served me I was kind of waiting for him to file anyways.

Why do you have to break the news to him?
