Thanks Aver. My L said she thought asking for 1/2 the L fees was fair. I just don't know b/c I am assuming he is not paying for an L - she is OW's sister! And I havent' seen any major withdrawals or cr. card charges to indicate a retainer. I got the idea on here, reading other people's threads.

I definitely have no delusions about him changing based on me asking for that or not - my question is, it FEELS sort of bad. Like am I being spiteful? I want to be honorable, not petty, just like that nice line you wrote before your email to X.

Anyhoo, I'm not real worried about H but as it gets closer to April my anxiety may grow. I dont' HAVE to move - the house is in both our names - but I think I just want to be out of there anyway. I just hate that he's on some kind of time deadline.

He probably hasn't done a change of address since he knows he's getting the house. Part of my slowness since meeting L to go over the S agrmt. is processing the shock of how little $$ I'd get in a buyout. It really threw me. It'd be around $4,000. I reconsidered my position, but really I don't want the house. I'm kind feeling the opposite of you on that. It's location, it's size & maintenance issues, gigantic yard, etc. etc.

Anyway, I need to email H to tell him I have to withdraw big amt. $500 out of checking b/c my paycheck split hasn't gone through yet, and I need to pay my cr. card bill for my dental work. Just didn't want to do it today. Today is 4 years since my Mom died, always a sad anniversary. So I'm giving myself permission to not deal w S stuff today.

OK, FB - that's what I thought. I'll try to check it out. I hope you are keeping steady on the big rollercoaster. I'll check in on you. (((())))
