I know it doesn't make sense and is illogical. That's why I'm still having a hard time doing anything towards filling out the papers.

I don't want a divorce. However, she says it going to happen.

If I fill out the papers, then I will control the process. Also, if she gets a lawyer involved, she'll probably get 50% of everything. Right now she only wants what she's put into the house, 401k, etc.

By listing her as the plaintiff and me as the defendent, then SHE is on record as the one who wants the divorce.

I'm trying to make the best out of the situation and keep from loosing everything. Am I wrong to do this??

Here's the last email she sent me. (This is the only communication we've had in probably two weeks.)

Hi there!

Just checking in to see if you need anything from me to finalize the divorce papers and to see what you have decided with the house.
If possible, I would really like to get together before I leave to discuss everything and finalize what we can.

Just so you know, per your recommendation, I am beginning a group for separated and divorced people this evening and I am seeing a therapist every other week. My thoughts have not changed as far as our divorce but I'm working through some things and learning other things about myself.

I hope you are well. If I can, I'll call you this evening to check your schedule.
