Paul, I am both happy for you and sorry for you. I am happy that you were able to tell her how you feel, and that you are taking steps toward your own happiness. And I am sorry that your W agreed, and there doesn't seem to be a way (right now) to make things work.
I do know that you WILL survive. I think you will do even better than survive, Paul.
Are you going to go ahead and file, or mull for a bit? What's next?
