Gosh all this support just when I need it - thank you all.

Yeah, thought I had the emotional protection side of things covered but apparently not nearly well enough. I can't believe how hard this is hitting me. I agree I need to get things in order. No kids.. thankful for that right now.

Hope to see you Piecing soon. It's scary to make that jump... I know it's just a website but it feels like a big leap of faith.

Thanks for your email address, adding it to my address book now. I'm at nikkib@surewest.net.

Good point... I have GOT to get my head cleared out before I can do much else.

That's why I'd want something legal, in writing, before I'd leave.

I'm in a community property state so it's fairly cut and dried that anything acquired after marriage is a joint asset. It's a little fuzzy for us since we bought the house a year before marrying, but since we're both on the paperwork I think it will be ok.

Leaving can cause custody issues but since we don't have kids that's not a factor for us. It doesn't give H more rights over the property from what I've read and what one L told me when I did a brief phone consult. I wasn't that confident with this L though so I will talk to another one for sure before doing anything. And I'd want something in writing no matter what.
