H has an account that is in his name only- inheritance from his mom( who btw he had no relationship with, I did) He has agreed to give me half of that. I know he is not legally obligated.
If he is offering this, try to get things settled as quickly as possible before he changes his mind. The WAS often makes generous offers like this at first, then withdraws them later once they get over their guilt. Try to get the best deal possible for yourself while he's still feeling guilty.

H grew up without money concerns. I did nor grow up that way. I am facing the demons of my childhood again... its the fears that are holding me back. How to conquer those fears?
I find frugality blogs empowering - try reading the Tightwad Gazette books by Dacyzyn, and the mrmoneymustache blog online.
