Okay, I must confess I screwed up yesterday morning. I was upset that she's moved to the couch, so I said, if we're not even going to pretend for the kids, we should just tell them and everyone else. That struck a nerve.
When I get home from work she tells me she's talked to a lawyer. She's really paranoid I'm going to expose, worried about her job teaching at a catholic school and everything.
So she lays this new tact on me and I wonder if it is under her lawyer's advice; comes right out and says, even if OM didn't exist, she would still not want to be married to ME. I responded okay let's try that - no contact. She boldly refused. Then she goes on about how she's staying in town for the kids and has no intention to move to OH to be with OM, blah, blah, blah.
Any laywers out there? Here's my position: she wants out, I don't. She's cheating, I'm not. I was a homeowner before we met, she wasn't. She was a stay home mom until S11 went to kindergarten in 2005. She also worked before S17 was born. IN between I was the breadwinner and funded her expenses to pursue a masters degree.
Now, what are my chances of keeping the house, custody, and salary? I am going to talk to a lawyer, but I thought someone here might know.
