i tell her I don't want that and im not sure how she's going to manage unless she stays with someone. She says shell figure it out it's not my problem. I ask if she would want help moving, she says no I don't want to rely on you for anything anymore.
Hi Illidin,
If you don't want her to move out, don't help her move out.

I explain for awhile longer that I'm not sure how I feel about this. That it isn't just about us splitting like it was 3 years ago, were married and with come all kinds of ramifications. You could come after more money, the house, fail and default on bills or rent and hurt both of credits. It's a lot to ask without any paperwork and I deserve to protect myself also.
Good for you holding firm! That's a win. Leaving it at "Let me think about that." was probably better than sharing your feelies and worries about ways she could cheat you. I forget--have either of you filed for divorce or legal separation? If not, consider that doing so would afford you financial protections should she go on a spending spree and then want to re-divide the money or other assets. Hang in there!
