When we were in the session, what he said was that if I don't agree to his mediation terms, he will take it to court (ie: divorce) and make it happen in another way. All the while I am saying that I don't think divorce is the answer for us, and that I believe we can get to a better place within our family and make it through. He alludes to a belief it this, but then always backs it with- "but just in case this gets taken to divorce court."

We see our counselor biweekly.

Ok... .he is "getting something" from divorce talk... .

That needs to be ended... .in and out of counseling. 

Listen... I guarantee you my wife has threatened divorce over 100 times... .more than likely over 200.

She has called lawyers... .had "lawyers" call my house and leave messages for her... .left "lawyer" papers "accidentally" in the printer.

Guess.when divorce threats ended... .when I stopped paying attention

I'll work on some wording or something... .

I know. I need to act like it doesn't shatter me every single time. It absolutely devastates me.

And he knows it.

You are getting it... .however... .response needs to be stronger.  We are going to need to start a new thread... .in fact I'll go start one... you can hop in.

We also need a new thread about your next counseling session.
