Lucky -- yeah, the OM is independently wealthy. But she's very independent-minded and also, by her own admission, very concerned about the post-divorce money situation. She's been laying down a lot of -- "you wouldn't be a Real Man if you took spousal support" and "we can't be foolish" and "we need to make 'mature' decisions" (like having an affair and abandoning your marriage, apparently).
(She earns quite a bit more than me; my job is a professional one, but a low-paying one, and we agreed that I'd do the lion's share of the kid stuff)
My thought wasn't that by being practical I'd bring her back. I'm just wondering whether or not that's a fair point to make, full stop.
