Had drinks with a good mutual friend last night. She tells me that W has made her choice, and that I can do nothing to help her. Says W has to continue down the path she is on.

So do I move forward with the formal financial split, sending W details about the separation of our assets, while at the same time trying to support her? Feel like Dr. Jekyl and Mr Hyde.

Very confused here.
