Hi Hoping. Sorry that you're here. frown But it is a good place for advice, support, etc.

If you can move so that you aren't in such close proximity, w/o getting into the specifics of why, that may a good idea. I can't imagine seeing W daily interacting like that doesn't take a toll on you.

She has already spoken to the stepkids about moving.


Very smart decision.

The GAL is for you and you ONLY. If you can take focus of W/M, and place it on you, you will feel better. It's exceptionally tough in the first few weeks/months. You need to take extra good care of yourself now. GAL is like a snuggly warm security blanket. smile Try to keep a little bit aloof. What sort of questions is your W asking?

If you don't want D, and don't want to sell your house, don't. It's simple. I assume the deed is in both of your names? I don't think the house can be sold w/o both parties signatures, but that is something you should definitely find out.

Take a deep breath, calm down, and know that you will be alright. smile
