I think you are doing a great job in your sitch. You really are having an impact on her, and it is good the position you have put yourself in the M for both you and your kids. Keep protecting yourself and your kids.
Who knows what WAWs are thinking.
I guess I will keep letting her know I will not live like this forever. She seems to soften a little but still won't commit to anything. Is it time for patience or should I keep pressing the issue of her moving out and filing for D? I think I know the answer. I am just so tired of all of this.
IDU I am sure she realizes you will not live like this forever and your actions more than your words will continue to show her that. She seems to soften, but she goes back to her normal self because she still does not believe that you will really follow through with what you say.
"She said she didn't understand why I was going to a L if I didn't want a D." Then you make statements such as, "She asked if I wanted to do the bills and I said we would do them together for a while."
These statements still make her believe that you are not as serious as you say you are. It seems to be what she is thinking. She still does not totally believe that you will not live like this forever. She does not believe you 100% that you will follow through, but she is starting to have doubts. It is your actions that are making a difference. This is just my thoughts.
Only you can and should decide if it "Is (sic)time for patience or should (you) keep pressing the issue of her moving out and filing for D?"
I hope you understood my response. It was difficult for me to write what would be so easy to say verbally.
