Wife said she is getting an attorney. We will then hopefully sit down and negotiate terms for the official separation.
Many people get freaked out when the attorneys get involved--they feel like they've signed off on a divorce. In fact, the involvement of legal counsel injects a certain amount of reality into the situation. Neither side can indulge in his/her fantasy that, "everything will be fine if (spouse) just gets with the program." Divorce is serious business that affects the lives of everyone connected to the litigants. It's better for everyone to know that up front.

As long as your attorney says it's kosher, it doesn't matter how she takes it. She started down this path and either has to see it through or do an about face.
The question then becomes, do you want her back? If so, what are you both willing to do to make it work?
