I've thought the same thing. When she started this loan modification she mentioned that it will be good for the situation "even if we end up staying together" Both our names are on the paperwork, but I have to wonder if there is a master plan behind this.
I know you thought the same thing: you basically told me what you were thinking.
From this, I can tell you aren't comfortable spending a lot of money on a house you may not be living in. So... on plans for the house, just tell her you will think about it unless she presses.
If she presses, then I guess you come clean and say you don't want to put a lot into a house you aren't sure you will be living in.
