They want to walk away and get a divorce that is fine but it also means walking away means walking away from it ALL...They felt powerful making such a decision but rarely think past what that power will bring their way.
True dat! I can count at least a half-dozen occasions in the last month -- really, since I started Rolling -- that I've been gobsmacked by something WAW has said ("Golly I've already spent $12K on the new house -- I didn't think it would cost that much") and could only reply, "Didn't you think about that? You knew you were divorcing me for at least a month and by your own admission had been thinking about it longer than that. It never occurred to you -- you, Ms. GTD-Filofax-DayRunner of 2009 of all people! -- to actually find out what it would entail?"

Looking back though how often do any of us get to learn so much about ourselves? Probably not that often.
Was just saying the exact same thing to OCF and FFF the other day. Unreal. On the one hand I've lost 4.5 months of productive time and am being CRUSHED beneath the weight of Things Undone, but on the other I really really really like who I'm becoming. Don't know if the Cost/Benefit lines have crossed yet, but they're converging.
