Wife said she wanted a divorce about 6 weeks ago. Since then it’s been lame, but amicable as I sleep in the home office.

Emotions are high, and I wrote out what I would give her so we can go cheap with no lawyers and go uncontested. She refused.

I showed my offer to 3 lawyers and they all said I was being VERY generous, and could take it down to about 25% of my offer. Made me feel a bit better.

Gave her my lower offer, she refused, and said she wants a lawyer (mostly because she’s younger and naive) I was sick of this being over my head, so I made an official appointment to file.

Realized although I am sick of her shut, there’s been no abuse or physical infidelity, and there’s still an ember of love there, we just have to find it and nurture it.

I cancelled the appointment for the sake of preserving my family, and gents, there is strength in vulnerability. I’ve read NMMNG, and I’m good at grey rocking. That being said, I’m pretty sure I got the point across that I could fucking destroy her if I wanted.
