Thank you Coly and Esame,
I'm so upset right now. H made the low settlement he "offered" me before and gave me and my lawyer 2 weeks to respond or else it's going to get ugly.

Another threat. As usual. How am I supposed to deal with this? Was our whole relationship a lie??! This is just crazy to me. The concept of reducing the marriage to a dollar sign is too much. I can't handle this. We haven't even done any discovery to know what we're working with.

Keep in mind he's made about 3 other "offers" and each one has changed and the last time he said, " this is the best you're going to get... You should be smart and take it. I'm not going to be as generous if this keeps going."

I just feel like our entire marriage was a sham and I feel so stupid. He valued me not one bit and I don't mean financially ( though it's reflected in the offer). I'm so upset. How can I stop allowing him to have this power over me? He'll never understand my feelings about this because all he can see is dollar signs.

2x4s please..... I need them. Seriously.
