ZB, Listen to what everyone here is telling you. Even though your W is no longer "physically" abusive, she is still very mentally abusive to your girls. That is obvious by the one saying she can't wait to get out. Take the girls and leave. Protect them and yourself. Do it now. Like Corri said, just because you leave doesn't mean you have to D her. However, you do have to protect your children. There is a very young sensitive teenager that is looking for you to take care of her. Do it.
