In this personal monologue, the speaker reflects on the bargaining stage of divorce, recounting how they repeatedly asked their ex‑partner to attend marriage counseling while the partner dismissed the need for it. When the speaker finally decided to divorce, the ex‑partner suddenly suggested counseling, but the offer came after the decision was already made, rendering it ineffective. The speaker explains that bargaining often creates false hope of repairing the relationship, offering a brief acknowledgment that in rare cases it might succeed, but generally it is too late to reverse the decision.
