I'm speaking with my lawyer tomorrow, and getting the lay of the land. WAW will not be happy about the hardline I'm taking w/r/t pre-marital assets, but I have to prepare for my own future and as Steve85 said, I can't buy her back right now.
EXACTLY. And I will say again, if she wants to cling to the notion that you gave her some kind of promise, then politely remind her she promised to stick with you "until death do us part." She can't violate the biggest marital agreement of all and expect to hold you to a secondary marital agreement.

I hear you that an email would be better as to avoid the unpleasantness, but I'm also hoping that a productive, in-person session where everything is honestly disclosed will show a 180 and an indication of understanding one of her frustrations.
Don't agree to anything. Just listen and validate. If she asks you to agree to something just state that you will need to discuss it with your lawyer first. I would not disclose ANYTHING about the proceeds from your pre-marital business. If she asks, just remind her that that was pre-marriage and is not subject to division. If she rants and raves and complains then just listen and validate. "I understand this must be very difficult for you."
