Mini-Update - Oh who am I kidding - I can't "mini" anything when I am posting...
I spoke to my MIL last night and informed her of my decision to file...
She doesn't want me to do it...
She wants me to take my H for whatever I can financially for the boys however she wants me to leave the filing up to him...
If I file, I give him what he wants...
He wants the divorce however doesn't want to be the "bad guy" so he pushes and pushes until he gets what he wants, the way he wants it - That is how he is in his life generally.
If I file, I take the control he doesn't want and then he still looks like the "good guy"...
He can then tell the kids, the family, the friends, the gophers in the yard, the aliens that visit him at night etc...I filed for the divorce and that he was willing to work on it had I given him a little more time.
Now, after speaking to her, I am second guessing myself and wondering - I hate confusion where there used to be clarity.

Good guy... Bad guy.... Ummmhuh... Do not even give that one minute of thought.
Do what is best for you.
Its a piece of paper. And you know what if wants to spend his life explaining his actions, and dishing out spite and hiding himself from the truth... So be it. His loss.
I know a woman who is going to spend her life growing and learning and becoming the best Serinity there is.
