As miserable as I was living in the house with my W I wasn't about to move out. There came a point where I finally agreed to let W go, I agreed that things weren't working between us, and I agreed that we should proceed toward a D.
I looked at the sitation as if I was going to be D. At that time I stood up for everything I thought was right regardless of if my W was happy or not with it. I got a backbone and wasn't about to let my W walk all over me.
Now I will say that I had time on my side by taking this stance. The state I live in will not allow you to file for D until you have lived in a separate residence for 365 days.
How attractive would you find your W if you could walk all over her and she never stood up for what she thought was right?
