You are quite welcome idu. Better days ahead for sure.
I had mediation today and I thought I did extremely well. I was poised and leading.
The only item we didn't agree on was the house finances. I proposed a buy number for her and she didn't like it. She I told her to propose something to me.
At one point during the meeting when the mediator left so we could discuss the finances my W actually showed some emotion. She teared up because she didn't feel she should have to pay her half of the mortgage for the past year.
"She said we were drinking every day and she needed to make a change. She said one of us needed to leave so she left. SHe then said I could have kicked you out!"
I looked at her her and said I was willing to work on things, you left. Why would I leave my home when I wanted to works thing out. I then said this is the consequences for your action.
I felt like I led the meeting. The mediator just took information we agreed upon.
At the end of the meeting I said:
So in closing these are the items still left on the table. 1 2 3
WE were all in agreement. I then asked her how long will this whole prosess take? The short of it-- 5 to 6 months.
I feel great today, maybe Today was my W's wake up call! naaaa
But that's OK
