I'm dealing with the same fun issue, wants to be friends but doesn't want an R. BTW, my stbx is a musician too- and I'm also in PNW
Must be something in the water!
My H did briefly send me an IM. He asked if I had a fax machine (yes) and then asked if he could use it. I asked when and he said either later on in the evening or today. I told him I was leaving around 9 (we were IMing at 6:30) so today would be better. So, he is supposed to come over today around noon.
It wasn't til I was on my way to the casino/dance club that I realized he is driving an awfully long ways to use a fax machine when he could go down the road to a kinkos. I'll assume he doesn't realize how many places there are to fax things.
Anyway, I think I might bring up the sitch about the stock being liquidated. Not sure how to lead into it. Like I said, I really don't want to get into a divorce talk. But I also think that I should get to "control" my portion of it. And I freaking need the money to get me thru this time while the market is so slow.
So back to my question from the other day- can anyone think of a "nice" way to say "Gimme my half"?
