Tough, I really empathize with you. My wife asked for a divorce almost 2 yrs ago and she's still here and emphatically still does not want to work things out. I'm not good enough to be a husband and lover but i'm good enough to be a full provider.
I struggled with this thought as well. I spent over 21.5 years on a military career; pushing towards the ultimate goal of retirement, all the benefits, combined with a second career to really give my family a comfortable life. Now here I am; I succeeded in those goals only to have it threatened with the WAW actions. I am basically supporting a "roommate" with no reciprocation of a wife! It crappy; it makes you hurt and angry and feel like an ATM machine!
I just remind myself of the vows I made to her and I truly believe in them. I promised "for better or for worse". This is "worse" and time to buckle down and be consistent rather than show resentment!
