How did I handle the sitch. Called the w and asked why she was delaying filing, was it all about the 401, maybe we would get more back on taxes this year? She first said it was that she thought I was pulling out the 401 but to be honest I don't care about the 401, there's not that much in there. I told her I was waiting on a court order, and that I was not going to pull it out to be vendictive. She then said that she didn't want to file right now was because if she moved out and decided that if that wasn't what she really wanted she could come back. I know do not get my hopes up, no expectations. My responce was that I was kind of hoping that was the reason, and that i know it must be hard for her to think about what she wants when she is by herself during the week and then on the weekends I'm home. I told her I am trying to give her her space to decide what's she wants with out trying to control or push an outcome. I Told her that i realize what she is going through must be difficult.
Kudos to you, that's awesome DB'ing You did everything right. Well done! It's fine to have hope, just try not to have expectations. Do you understand the difference?
