I think once he talked to atty and the house issue he was frustrated and realizing this is harder than he had in his mind.
He isn't looking for me to ask him back into the home... he already knows I do not want this.
The reason he gave me for not leaving is something that happened in his first divorce. He left without an agreement in place... packed some things and got out. Came back for more stuff and his XW had destroyed his bike and threw out his stuff. They lived in a small town and he couldn't get charges filed. His stuff was considered communal property and not protected because there was no separation or divorce agreement filed.
Now he says he doesnt think I would ever behave that way. Which I would not... so he stated he could spend a night here and there at his parents . Weekends he will couch surf w friends.
He did rental with his first divorce and never again... he wants a house with yard for a garden.
He has some money that he got prior to our marriage. It had been put back for his D18 college fund but she never grad high school. Now he put that in an acct with both our names. It's about 26k. I could be the bitch and claim half but that would be unbecoming of me. So yes... he has down payment.
Everything I see on my end he is looking to be out the door as soon as whatever papers are filed.
