Terapin,

You need to be thinking about taking care of yourself, protecting yourself both emotionally and financially. If getting the house ready to sell quickly is important to you financially then perhaps you should do it. I didn't see that mentioned earlier in your sitch though, and it seems like you might be rushing things just to get some resolution. This is a long process and rushing through it won't actually help. Has your wife even talked about moving out? I don't think you can force her to leave the house until you are divorced. Is the house in your name or hers or both?

I think you are trying to get out ahead of things to try and control them. Let go of that. The sooner you realize that you can't control this situation the better off you will be. Obviously, take the steps to protect yourself, but give up the illusion of control.
