He has given up Hope, but I still have Faith. We havent even gone to our first court date, and we def havent exhausted all of our options.

I LOVE my spouse so much and understand that lately things just aren't the same. We're just starting off in this marriage, and it hasn't been a smooth ride. He decided to file for a divorce so that he could get a court order for our son. He moved out after a fight about a month ago, he already filed for a divorce, and we haven't sat down and talked things over. We text occasionally because I initiate the conversation, he has mixed feelings and says he loves me and all he ever wanted in me was happy home and a family. Then comes the BUT, he doesn't feel that were happy any more and he doesn't believe that I am going to change my attitude. We don't have any major problems that are out of the ordinary, we just haven't been getting along and are stuck on "high school kid drama". I'm so past it and I know he is too, I think that we can definitely change our attitudes and try to make this marriage work. But after all the break ups he just doesn't believe this time is going to be any different. We both have many things we can work on but it seems as though I'm the only one acknowledging there is room for self improvement. He's lost hope, I still have faith and am willing to do ANY thing to salvage our marriage, but he's not giving me that option. I feel like giving up. I don't know how to get through to him any more, we have over come so much and it breaks my heart that his is wiling to let it all go. Is there still hope if I'm the only one who sees and believes in it? Should I keep trying? Our initial court date is in 10 days, will there be an opportunity for reconciliation then? Should I wait until our court date or keep trying to make things right with him?

Will he agree to go to counseling with you?  I would fight for your marriage but if he is checked out he might not be interested. Let him see you have "changed your attitude" and see what happens.

If you are going to try and work things out, I wouldn't waste any time....

Once you start the court stuff, i think its tough to stop the process...

Some things are hard to stop....  For example,It seems to me its sort of like getting engaged.  most people that get engaged, get married.  Its a process that drives you forward and takes on a momentum of its own.... 

Id bet that most people that file for divorce, get divorced....
