Pilot, in regards to the money market account, I'm 99.9% I was the only person who contributed to it during MR.

Bob, I do feel myself getting stronger. I feel better mentally, I look better physically, and I'm working on detaching emotionally (but stillI still have a long way to go). I still have my weak moments of course.

So W texts me for the account password.

I reply with:
I will provide whatever information you need for the affidavit. I need to be more involved with the finances going forward. I'd like to sit down and help sort through the bills together.

W then calls to tell me that she doesn't understand me and that I can't deny her access to our savings. W starts berating me saying that the money market account is her money too because we got married. I simply tell W that I want to have input into how the bills are paid and I want to help her with the joint finances. W just asks why I won't give her the password. I calmly tell W that the account is in my name. W then launches into how I screwed her over because everything was in my name during MR.

I remain calm and just reply that the account is our family's money and I need to have a role in how the bills are paid going forward. I request a time to sit down to put a financial game plan together for paying bills.

W then tells me to have all my bank account passwords ready when we meet. I tell W that I will not do that and all that will get sorted out.
I move toward ending the call while W spews a few expletives my direction.

W calls again, but this time more calm, and asks why I want to hurt her. W states that these actions appear like I'm just trying to control her some more. I tell W that I have no intention of hurting her and I just reiterate that I want to be more involved and helpful with joint finances/bills. I let her talk some more and W tells me how damaging it was for all finances to be in my name only. I validate and agree that it must have been hurtful, etc.

Oh what fun!
