Her every behavior pretty much is consistent with that of an angry teen. In her mind, you are the adult authority figure in her life who put an end to her dreams, never mind that her dreams did not include you, except as a financial provider.
What opposite ends of the spectrum our two situations followed. Mine over quick, neat, and with little interaction. Yours taking forever, incredibly hostile, and daily attacks from an angry woman. How I wish yours could have been more like mine.
I think it's safe for you to stop examining yourself for evidence of having done something wrong here. No fingers need to be pointed your way in how things have unfolded. Your slip ups have been minor and more than understandable given the incredible ugliness you've dealt with on a daily basis.
Consider that communication by text message only could be a blessing in disguise. I'm sure it won't make living in the same house any easier, but as Jack pointed out, at least you have legitimate reason now to walk away from any hostile conversation she might decide to instigate.
Please make sure that your lawyer fully understands the immense discomfort that exists in your home right now. Make sure that she realizes how important it is to move this forward so that the two of you can put some distance between you.
You're a fine man.
Blessings,
Bill
