I intend to live forever - so far, so good

[ClingingToHope]

I sent STBXW an email basically saying I'm broke and will be seeking bankruptcy advice and she should know because it'd be smarter if we file together.

For two years I've spent most every minute trying to figure out how to survive and thrive and it's time to face reality. I need to start fresh. I talked to a couple of friends who filed and they said no one said a negative thing and they woke up relieved to have the cloud gone.

Perhaps I shouldn't have sent the email -- I told her I didn't want to talk about divorce stuff, just email -- but I'm tired of posturing and hiding. I'm broke.
