Should I Tell Husband About Divorce? or Surprise Him?

I have been through a divorce, however, we did not have kids so it made it easier, and I can't imagine having to do that now that I am a mother. I am not familiar with your story either. That being said, here is my thought. I think it would depend on the relationship you have with him now. If it's pretty good and things are running smoothly then I would tell him and not surprise him. I would imagine it would make him angry if you knew and then had the papers served out of the blue. That could strain the relationship again. On the other hand, if your relationship is strained and every time you talk you argue then why tell him. Save your self some stress, at least for a little while. GOOD LUCK!! It's nice to see you are happy at such a difficult time in your life. That will make all the difference in your future.

Hello! I am a recently divorced mother of 3 wonderful kids. I don't think you should tell him . He may get angry or try and talk you out of going through the legal system. He may be decent now, but you never know what the future holds and doing things through the court system now will prepare you for a better future.Good luck!

It would depend on the individual. You know him better than we do. Think how he would react and act accordingly.
good luck

Does your husband in any way think you are going to get back together? I am guessing you don't live together anymore cause you said you left him. If he has no hopes of getting back together then yes give him the papers, or have him served with the papers if you are scared to hand them to him yourself.

Why would you tell him? No I would let the lawyers handle it from here on out. Good luck!

I would not utter a word. I would surprise him. Either he changes his ways or take a hike!
