Ok. I'm not saying she hasn't prepared papers but, you are freaking out about something that may or may not be happnening right now. Quite feeding into her behavior. You are giving reactions just as she is expecting. You are predictable and the same person to her right now because well....it's true.

I've been told to expect papers virtually every week (sometimes daily) for months. But then she told me she met with an atty several times. But then told me she was getting stuff together just in case the atty needs it. If you have ever been to a legal proceeding of any kind they tell you what they need pretty quickly. You have minor children. I doubt it's just a "sign here" and you're done. In my state they require (even in amicable and collaborative divorces) parenting classes and custody support hearings. Don't think she's going to force a pen in your hand and you will be D by midnight.

You mentioned that she hasn't asked you to look at the condos yet... why would you? Why would you help her abandon you? She wants independence and wants away from you, remember that. Why are you going to help her do that? Don't even wade into the friend zone waters bud. Otherwise you will soon be putting together a bed and dresser for someone else to be using....



Believe none of what they say and half of what they do.

A condo may be a good thing for both of you. She will get a taste at life without you (if you detach) and she very well may realize it [censored]! It will also give you the chance to GAL and focus on you!
