Me too. I'm trying to figure out how to do a diy divorce right now. I in the states, and in my state, you can file online and it's not too complicated. The ex and I have no minor children or kids in common for that matter. Still, the state wants a weird amount of information even when you don't want anything from the ex except a divorce. It's not like I'm going after a chunk of their pension or car, and the ex doesn't want any of my stuff either. It's bizarre, unnecessary, and overwhelming.
Also, neither of us can presently afford to live alone. When the ex goes I'll need a roommate if I want to keep my house, and the ex has nowhere close to enough cash to get an apartment, let alone things like a bed or chair, anything really. The house and everything in it is mine, so the ex has a way to go and doesn't want to be fifty living with mom again. Thankfully we're able to peacefully live together through this. It's a mess.
