Do I buy a new house? Too soon?

[Jeremyt]

My WAW and I have been separated now for about 7 weeks. I've been practicing the proper techniques laid out in DB and DR as I've read both.

Currently my W and I share a house and an apartment. Whomever has the children gets the house to stay in and we split the bill for each place.

There's a home for sale down the block from our current home for an insanely cheap price that would work for me to move into and have rooms for both of my D's.

My W has already stated she wants a D and she wants to keep our house since she knows I would be hard pressed to afford it alone.

Would it be too soon to buy a new house?

On one level it seems like a great GAL and would also cover my rear if things don't get any better between us. So far she's still ice and clearly has no intention of working things out between us at all. At the same time the fact that we share bills on the house is one of the few areas where we have any stake together. She initially gave me the option to not pay anything on the house, if I take it now is it really gonna push her away? Before thought that would be pretty harsh of me but now as things progress I feel like I need to prepare for the worst.

Does anyone have any input?
