Well, didn't notice my last thread locked -- gonna start a new one here, but will likely move over to the "Surviving the Big D" forum sometime this weekend.
Just wanted to make a quick update.
I texted my W yesterday about the cell phone bill and whether or not I needed to pay it (got a text from the company saying payment was due).
She called me back a few hours later and said she got my text, and that she just got paid but that it would be helpful if I did pay it. I said okay.
Then she said that she was going to have our phone bill split into 2 separate accounts, and was also going to get our car insurance split (I've been paying for both of us since we separated). I said that was fine -- that I'm ready when she is, and that I just wanted to make sure she was financially ready to make the split. She said that it's fine and she can do it now.
We then talked about some logistics regarding the kids and scheduling, and then said goodbye. Everything was very civil and good. No negative feelings or talking on either side. I was happy about this (and impressed), since last time we talked it was me saying I wasn't going to give her the money from the house.
I'm glad she brought up the separating of the bills, because I was wanting to do that but didn't want to do it right now since I just took away the money offer. Thought it would be way to harsh and maybe seem pretty mean.
Good stuff, considering -- I'm happy about how things are going.
