Well I felt like I got kicked in the stomach today. I received an e-mail from my lawyer stating that my W would like to sell her engagement ring and wedding band so she has some cash to move out. The rings together cost around 20k when they were purchased.
It just feels so cold to me that my W could get rid of them so easily. Another hurdle in the processing of emotions.
That's kind of a kick in the pees. My gut is telling me she probably is just motivated by the prospect of the cash. She is in survival mode now. My W went through the same thing with our 401k and the money she assumed was "in" the house. Not as personal as the ring but the motivation was the same; get money now. She kind of had a rude awakening when reality set in that when you start carving things up the pieces get pretty small. The rings are a marital asset are you not entitled to 50%.
