My Wife Wants to Separate

[DeterminedFather]

1. Have you checked with a lawyer to see if this could be considered abandoning your kids/family and used against you at a later time.

I've contacted 2 lawyers and both felt that moving out wouldn't be considering abandonment.

Are you making these decisions from the position of fear? Fear of making W angry. . .fear of Divorce. . .fear of xxxxx.
Decsions made from fear (or any other emotion really) are really poor decisions.

I'm not making decisions out of fear. It's been 4 months and I no longer fear losing my W because she is already gone.

Have you always just gone with the flow? Yes dear, whatever dear?

I have tried to keep the peace and the first time I didn't go along was when W first asked me to move out and I responded by saying she should leave if she is unhappy.

She would never leave the kids and my state's family court probably wouldn't make her so I don't have much to gain by trying to stop her. The kids would bear the brunt of the burden of moving out.
