Last evening, she called and said this arrangement is unfair and she would rather let the house foreclose than contribute her share of the mortgage. Upon filing, she decided to move out and get an apartment on her own. In the current sitn, she is better off financially. I stated roommates is a consequence of her decision. We had a cordial conversation and eventually she agreed.
At least she didn’t get upset, especially since you threw in “a consequence of her decision”.

Despite that there hasn’t been much contact, your W is taking notice of your changes. Keep on keeping on.

What is not to like about getting a compliment from your W regarding the convo with you?

I’m borrowing a saying(paraphrasing) from 25, “every minute spent on thinking/analyzing your WAW is a minute wasted on you”. (I’m sure I screwed that up. Hope you get the gist of it.) BTW, I know the exact feeling you speak of.

Yes, chalk it up as a positive interaction. Does it mean anything? Only time will tell. Stay the course.
