From the tone of your posts, I am not convinced you are emotionally ready to file.

However, you do need to protect yourself financially. Maybe this means filing for D (if that is the only option). Maybe this means a financial separation. IDK. Maybe consult a L (discreetly) about your options.

Once you are on relatively equal/stable footing with finances and the kids, by all means, stand as long as you want. Or don't. If you aren't on equal footing, you are not standing for your MR.

You wouldn't be the first person here to put up with a lousy financial situation waiting for your WAS to initiate the action.
