Yeah, "I want you to be happy" is irritating, and, frankly, bs to me. Really, you want me to be happy that you cheated and walked away and gave up? Why, so you don't feel as guilty?
I mean, if they wanted us to be happy, how about honoring commitments and demonstrating real love and fidelity!? Sheesh!
Anyway, I hope you guys get it all worked out quickly and without too many complications...I paid my atty a similar # up front but got half of it back at the end of the process, so it turned out okay!
