Julia,

thanks so much for your thoughtful and loving post to me today!!!

I think you are doing great. It doesn't sound like there is anything urgent about your financial situation (am I correct?) so until he brings it up again I would just wait for him to contact you. And obviously if he brings up selling the house you know that is probably going to take forrrreeevvahh.... to your benefit. Like OD said in the meantime focus on living your own beautiful, big, happy adventurous life and have lots of fun!!

It is curious why he discouraged you from splitting "his" expenses (the car), but sort of insisted on paying "your" expenses (the tv license). I wonder if it is guilt, or he is still trying to "provide" for you, or for some reason it is easier for him emotionally to keep things "status quo" with you financially instead of extricating himself financially from you? I had a dark thought that maybe it was his way of trying to control you or "keep" you. Or, not so dark, help him feel "safe". But all of this is really just CONJECTURE, and there's no way for us to figure it out, so, all we can do for the meantime is enjoy, like OD posted...

HUGE HUGS
