Good Afternoon,

Here is a question for you, Laurie. Can you tell me ... what is a separated wife to think?

Two weeks ago, my H and I were supposed to have a "marital settlement conference" with our attys. When his atty called my atty the night before the scheduled meeting, my atty revealed to his atty.(something that H did not already know)that I valued the house at twice as much as H did. That's because he was trying to undercut the price of the house by half.

Anyway, H's atty. then spoke to H and called back to cancel the meeting. When I spoke to him the next day, he said his atty was going to send us a proposal and we were to bounce a counter proposal back and then meet with a mediator and go from there. (I personally, don't think he really KNOWS what's going to happen - it's all just conjecture on his atty's part).

Anyway, that was two weeks ago. When I spoke to him a week ago, he asked if I'd received anything yet, and I said no. I have not heard from him or spoken to him now in over a week and there has been no news.

My question is: if he really wants to do this, why is he breaking meetings and dragging his feet?

Thanks if you can answer,
Thanks also, if you can't
