Remember that the divorce is about business and protecting yourself financially. Make the decisions that are best for you financially. There is nothing about the paperwork of the divorce that will prevent him from coming back if he wants to come back.

I've seen WASs here turn around at the last minute before a divorce was finalized, or try to come back years later after divorce and remarriage to the OP! Anything is possible. But it's usually a mistake to put off the divorce if it means you will suffer financially in some way. I haven't seen anybody win their spouse back just because they rolled over and gave everything away in the divorce.

Also, the longer you wait, the less generous the WAS becomes. It's often better to strike while they still feel some modicum of guilt.
