Thanks for all the input. You are spot on, on so many things. I do believe that she really wants to be able to say she was married for 10 years. That's just her. this is something she has said for 3 years now. However it is something that I will discuss with attorney depending on where things are in the situation. At this time she is saying she doesn't want spousal support and wants to stand on her on two feet. My W comes from a family with a lot of money. She will be a multi millionaire in the next 10 years at some point. She doesn't need my money.
Mach, I am definitely all over the place with my emotions. I don't like it. That's why I sat down and came up with goals that were simple and doable. Things that in the short term I could focus on. I am not sure what I want at the moment and I think that's why I am all over the place. One thing that I do know is that she said it felt like we were playing "mind games" the past couple of months and she is right. I would get upset that I didn't think she was "working on it" when she said she was. The resentment would build and I would revert, not in purpose, to my old self at times. This has also taken the pressure off me it seems. So I think it is a good thing that she just finishes school and I just work on me. Living in the moment. No expectations.
On a side note. She sent me a text a couple of hours ago asking if we were going to a concert. The concert isn't until 5/31 I know that I plan to attend regardless. Lol
