She started to come after me about "Why" I am doing this - turning my own arguments around on me. - "Don't blame this on me! This is now all your doing, etc." I need to make sure I have my answers clear in my own mind - "I don't want to get D'd, but I am not going to stay married to you under these conditions." or similar.
I spoke to a L a few minutes ago - good friendly discussion in which he gave me some good free advice, and then referred me to some other L's who are specialists. His basic point was "If the M is going to end anyway, then Limbo just costs you - both $ and time from your life" He reminded me very pointedly that the longer you stay in a bad marriage, the higher the alimony responsibilities, etc.
I do still love Mrs. Thinker, but I can't stay in THIS marriage.
