Consult with a lawyer before you start making any agreements. I almost gave her everything because I was ignorant of the laws and the actual legal stuff. Once I saw my lawyer the whole game changed. Of course she wasn't happy about it, but at least I didn't bury myself out of stupidity.

My W did the same thing. She said her decision was based on my behavior once she dropped the bomb. The whole begging/pleading/cards/flowers, etc... stage.

Personally, they're both full of Sh#t. But they need some rationalization to justify their decisions to break up a family.

I can't stand quitters.

They take the path with least resistance, but it's the harder path to crawl. Then one day they look around and see they built the same pile of sh#t on a bed of sand. Wash, rinse, repeat.

And yes, as Gucci has said - agree with her decision. Tell her it's the best way. That you want to keep moving forward with your life.

Maybe Gucci can give you some advice on the actual mindset and wording.
