Help! So my wife just initiated contact to me for the first time in GOD KNOWS HOW LONG! She contacted me because we still have a joint checking account. The joint account is currently -125 due to her mistakes in budgeting. The only transactions that are made by me are two auto deducts. One for life insurance and one for a teaching website. My deductions came out of the account well before the account went into the negative due to 2 overdraft fees.
So that is the background, in the email she sent she stated what our divorce decree says and it says that I have to close the checking account and am in charge of doing so. So my wife has asked me to contribute half of the funds to get the account back to zero balance so it can be closed.
Need advice so my questions to you all is.....
What or of anything should I make of this contact? Considering its the first time in months that she has initiated.
Should I use the 48 hour rule before I respond?
How should I word my email response that shows I am perfectly okay with the situation and am moving on?
Thank you in advance for any and all responses.
Sounds crazy, and I know I am prob reading into it too much, but felt good to get a initiated email from her! Even though is was about closing accounts and closure on her part.
