Hi Sad, I have responded to a couple of your other posts, and I identify with your sitch, but I'm not sure if my wife is going through a MLC? I mean, how can we tell? My wife has been pleasant, distant and doesn't want anything to do with me, but not angry, so I'm not sure what a MLC looks like to be sure? But mine wants a D too, asked me again a couple of weeks ago, makes me feel like crap. I have told my wife I don't want a D a couple of times, if she asks me again I think I will tell her to file if she wants, no help from me, and she can explain it to our S, b/c telling him about us separating was tough enough, he would be crushed if we got a D! Like I said, I'm no expert on MLC, my W is 43, so I think she might be a candidate, more so than your 35 year old husband, but again, who knows? Are you trying to GAL sad? Going to the gym? Hanging out with friends? I don't remember if you have kids? Do you have to have a lawyer or can you discuss financial matters between the 2 of you? My W and I did it all between us, I refinanced my house and paid her 1/2, split our assets, even visiting rights with our S, none of which is easy, but cheaper than a lawyer. Stay in touch, keep posting, I find I help myself by helping others, I answer my own questions that way sometimes. Talk to you soon,
