As much as I hate to say this, (and I understand why, at this stage, you would say "I can't imagine he would screw me over, but you never know.").......... HE MIGHT. Look around this forum.
Listen to 25. She's in the middle of a battle. She's trying to help you protect yourself.
Never underestimate what a WS may do. He is not the same person that you began this R with, years ago.
Get legal advice. Stop so much talking to him about your feelings, your future plans, and for heaven's sake, don't trust his saying he hasn't seen a L. Maybe he hasn't. But right now you are bargaining for $ that will affect the rest of your life, and your children's futures. Don't gamble with the odds on him in a game this big.
Put yourself back in the driver's seat of your own life. Show him through your attitude and behavior (NOT WITH WORDS) that you are a strong, independent woman who is driving her own bus now. HE should be the one worrying that YOU won't screw him over.
