Next steps

I'm sure you aren't miserable in the house now. I certainly wasn't because I love my house. I simply took down the handful of pictures of us together and everything else was already the way I decorated. But it is the short term. I am concerned how you will feel a couple years down the road when it has cost you thousands of dollars to fight for the house. And you're still scared to go into town because you don't want to run into X and OW. Is that the quality of life you want?

I would be all for you keeping the house if you had the right motive and attitude. But you don't. And in that case I vote for getting the best financial deal and moving on.
