She Say's She Want's Out Of The Marriage

Sounds like you handled it just fine. Don't worry about what seems to be a rushing on her part. When my W told me she wanted a D she had an appraiser at the house the next week...imagine how messed up that felt. Probably the same as how you are feeling after this news.

So nothing's changed. Just a move to make a piece of paper. It doesn't change anything at all. It only appears to be a change. I think what you wrote was textbook on how you should act (notice I didn't say react). Kudos on not arguing and drawing the boundary that you would get off the phone instead of argue.

tbart, these situations are always 'lets see what happens'. It really can't be any other way.

You did great. Be proud of yourself. Now don't let your mind start zooming around looking for reasons behind her wanting a legal S. It is what it is. Accept it and make your decisions inside of that reality.
