I am open to a formal Sep, but not a wihy-washy undefined one like she seems to be hoping for


I wish I had pushed for this in the beginning.

The informal S we wrote up and agreed to has allowed some minor financial issues to turn into big, honking arguments because he interprets it to mean he gets to make all final decisions about $.

And our agreement about not spending marital assets on other women turned into him having the option to date. Our agreement that OW would never, ever again set foot on any property with my name on the deed... he broke that one, too.

A formal S, especially with kids, seems like it would be critical in this situation.

09/14 H wants to R
12/14 Still bungling our way through R
