This really fuching angers me when someone wants out and is not willing to leave. I like to use the Braveheart analogy here "hold, hold, hold". It's going to get tense here Doug there is no way around it. Are you going to keep the house?
That's the million dollar question, LH. If things happened today, I don't know if either of us could buy out the other's equity in the house. I'd be getting bled dry in child support. Funnily enough, back before I had read DR and held too many relationship talks, W said many times that "the kids need a house" and that she'd stay in a marriage she didn't want to if that's what it took. Hyperbole, to be sure, but she's definitely allergic to the thought of the house being sold as part of a divorce. I honestly think she believes I'd rather keep my full pension and just give her the house. However, I'm sure I'd need my share of the house sale profit for down payment on another home for myself.
