W decided she couldn't stay here any more because she is depressed and trapped in the basement (She moved us to the basement last year so D11 could move into master bedroom and S9 could move into a larger bedrooms. Typical of her sacraficing everything for the kids but making herself miserable at the same time.) I'm living separately in the 4th bedroom upstairs since our in home separation started.

She is "trapped" in the basement because I'm upstairs with the kids in the evening.

She threatened to move out with the 3 kids and leave me with the house, 3 dogs, bird and fish tank since I won't move out.

I started to think by not letting her go or having me move out I'm forcing her away. Is part of a 180 moving out and giving here what she wants?

We are going to MC tomorrow so hopefully having a professional between us will help.

I started thinking about how moving out and not having to deal with her crazy logic would be nice. I think i'm giving up now.
