How in the world do I convey to him that I DON'T want a divorce and I DON'T want to seem like a bitch, BUT I'm not going to let him take advantage of me any more and I will protect myself by making sure that any D settlement is in my best interests. UGH...
That is really tricky and I don't have experience with it. What about laying it on the line: delivering flowers *and* divorce papers with a note saying: "I love you and I believe that we can have a wonderful future together. Unless you feel the same way, however, it's time to divorce".
