Hey Arsene! Thanks for chiming in. First, she didn't respond to my last email about having something to do that weekend... No surprise there!
While I'd like to do this in person, I've already agreed not to be in the house when she comes. I will be packing up all her stuff, but I don't plan on being there. I know Chatter thinks this is insane, but there's literally nothing in the house that she could take which would upset me in any way... It's all just material stuff... And I'll be taking whatever things I may miss along with me out of town that weekend.
I just don't think that going back on my word on this one would be a good thing. While I don't want to make it "easier" on her, I also don't want to simply be there to be there... That's passive aggressive behavior at its finest at this point.
I agree AT. There is a time and a place to be tough... and there is a time and a place to show reasonableness. I let my W have access to the home when she moved and again, 6 months later, when she moved again and wanted to take more stuff. I told her that it is was fine that she take the items that she needed for now, and that we would figure it all out later, IF we moved forward with the divorce. I was careful to slip that last part in so that she knew that I was not just conceding ownership of the things that she took.
