You're very welcome! But I really can't take the credit, I was just paraphrasing concepts that MWD lays out in DR

I agree with the others that this is well thought out. Try to gather yourself together for when you do meet, treat it like a business transaction. Keep the emotions buried and just discuss the details. I know it's difficult because I went through it with my W at separation, but it's necessary. Before you meet think about how you want to divide things up, go into it prepared. You don't have kids, right? That takes a lot of the complexity out of the conversation.
