She's not shutting you out of their lives. And of course his reaction will be a concern, but that's her problem.

When people want out, THEY JUST LEAVE. I've seen it twice with friends of mine. And I've bee told by others who've been divorced for years, when they left, they left. Done and nothing the other spouse said or did made any kind of difference.

All makes sense. She does need me financially right now though. She is living in our house, we both work but I am still paying way more than I would in child support if she had custody, which by the way I would fight against anything less than 50/50 to my last dollar). And she still isnt making ends meet. She says she already feels guilty taking what she does from me. I have padded her account for essentials a few times lately. Even discussed that tonight.

Not sure if any of that's relevant.
