Update - she came home and started dumping some of the stuff she had borrowed from me and returned my valentine and wedding anniversary greetings. I simply asked told her cordially that my home is not a dumping ground and she can leave those stuff near the dumpster. After a bit of hesitation she did leave them at the dumpster. I also threw the wedding cards and gifts into the dumpster.( i know i shouldn't have but i had to since she has been walking all over me and i had to stand my ground and affirm)I gently requested the home keys to be handed over and she left without uttering much. Before leaving she commented that she could have thrown the box i gave her into garbage. I told her its her items and do what she needs to. I closed the garage door and was done.

A few observations while this happened - i was happy to see her , and i observed some kind of agony and emotion on her face as well sensing she isnt that happy. I was with mixed emotions and neutral and showed a strong confident response.

She is yet to discuss next steps regarding divorce.
