"He pictures himself in his own house with lots of land, living on his own, with us sharing 50/50 custody."
Even at 50/50 custody he likely will be paying child support. So he can have "his own house with lots of land" with a significant hit to his income? Maybe he can. But your paragraph above about the realities is a good one. WASs rarely consider anything that causes their fantasy to be interrupted.
Does he make enough money to pay support and live his dream?
Schak, one thing I often repeat about spouses that want to live on their own is this: A spouse doesn't need their own place to figure things out, or find themselves, or to decide what they want. A spouse needs to their own place to sleep with other people.
Remember, believe nothing he says and only half of what he does.
