CityGirl, I agree with you and I have spoken to a few different attnys recently so I know what I need to do to protect myself. I feel pretty confident going into this meeting regarding a plan to divide assets. W is in fantasy land that she thinks she is not responsible for joint bills...doesn't matter if she uses those things or not. Legally she is still responsible. She must think I'm going to be a pushover with this, she would be wrong.

On the R side, yes, I do hold a lot of emotional connection with my W. I still love her and want to get past this dividing of assets. Then maybe she could relax. No question in my mind that she still holds a lot of resentment towards me for the past two years of financial stress. My depression obviously doesn't make a difference to her but that's ok. I'm not using that as an excuse, I except my responsibility. That's why I have worked so hard to first get help for my depression so that I have been able to move forward and get a job. At some point in life we all need a wake up call to institute change. Ths way mine and I'm taking it very seriously.
