I've been very close to filing because I feel done but the kids want their home and parents together so I've tried to give it some time as I put them first.
David, you have probably thought about it - but what does being close mean?
I'm starting to get prepared for a worst-case scenario whereby I'd lose the house and kids in a D.
After the meal on Sunday, on Monday I was feeling totally done and wanting to call my solicitor to file but I had the kids with me and I looked at them and couldn't do it.
My solicitor is now doing prep work to be completed this week for the next custody date and then getting back to me about finance. Next week, I plan to ask W if she has sent the financial info (she hasn't done yet) that I requested over a week ago. If she doesn't then my solicitor has already composed a letter formally asking W for financial info for a D but it hasn't been sent yet due to the custody case.
The financial info should reveal what W has done. Perhaps that proof of what W has done might wake her from her BS immature alien fog, and it should show how long I can leave it before filing to protect myself financially.
