Convincing them is not impossible but may be easier said than done.
If you have been begging them to come back to you, you better stop now for the nagging alone will probably drive them away. You may think that if you do leave them alone they will have little resistance and seem as if it is easier for them to leave you. Most of the time when there is nagging going on, the one who wants the divorce is more convince they want to continue following through with it because they don't want the nagging part to be a part of their life any longer.
Explaining that you would like another chance in a calm, pleasant way, being more mature about it may surprise your spouse and at least give them the time of day to think about it more.
Screaming and carrying on immaturely certainly will only scare them away more quickly. But certainly make sure they know you are hurt and saddened by their decision and that you would like another chance tp prove yourself to them. You might be surprised at their reaction to you being so calm and mature they may give it some more serious thought on the account of you being this way.
