She tries to bait me all the time into arguing with her and 99% of the time I'm able to resist.

As for walking awasy that is not an option for me. We currently live in the house that I grew up in. After my mother died I completely gutted the house right down to the studs. I put in months of working nights and weekends to rebuild it for us and I'll be damned if I'm going to walk away so she can move another guy in. She says I am not a man for throwing her and the kids out and I calmly explained that if I have them half the time then I am going to be the one to raise them in the house. Plus she doesn't have the resources to buy me out while I am currently working with my family to buy her out and I should have that issue resolved soon.

What I am realizing is that I may actually have the kids more than half the time. My W thinks that she is going to be able to survice on her own with the support we agreed on and only working part time and picking up an extra shift here and there at the hospital. What I do know is that she will have to go full time 5 nights a week in order to survive. I can't wait for that reality to set in.
