It's a very nice piece. Genuine silver....with simulated birthstones of the kids. The real deal would have cost $500 more... And nobody would be able to tell the difference.

I agree that if she really wanted to file, she would have done so already. The irony here is that she is scared of the divorce. And I am not.

I disagree on this one. She needs to see me as strong and confident. Showing weakness will give her another excuse. I need to be myself. Being phony (weak, needy, depressed, moody) will drive her away. And being "me" has nothing to do with her. It's who I am. Whether she likes it or not.
But thank you, thank you, thank you for the input. I treasure it. I really do.
