Very true. Just an FYI Wendy, my W "made her choice to end the M" and basically was just walking away from it all. She said (paraphrased), "I'm OK if nothing else happens". That was in regards to me leaving the house and us being physically separated. ie. That there would be NO D.

Finally, after much time which felt like pulling teeth, my W agreed to legal separation, rather than D.

My W has maintained through all of this, EVEN NOW after legal S, that I would be the one paying for D if I want it AND... it needs to be done quick and painlessly...

As snod said... they are brave on the face of it, the reality is they want no responsibility... Not just the responsibility of the work... but the responsibility of being the one who pulled the trigger...
