Hi folks,

Demographic Summary

I am 33, self-employed with small company of three. She is 34, still pretty hot. Together we have 6year old child.

Story

A couple years ago when I was 27/28 I nearly went bankrupt through a bad deal handled wrong. As you would imagine it didn't last long until my wife filed for divorce and the only reason she didn't pull through was that the paperwork was too much effort on her part and I managed to get on the ascending branch again. So she backpaddled and withdrew the divorce.

Now the last two years we are living together again. She is a fine girl but I don't have the bluepill trust in romantic relationships anymore. (Thank you MRP).

Since then I changed the legal form of my current business to a limited company and protected the business through a retroactive prenub. And yes, here were I live these prenubs are worth a damn. Location: Western Europe.

Couple weeks ago I found a 480.000€ real estate investment and went through with it, without even telling her about it. She still doesn't know. For reasons of financing I couldn't do the investment through my limited company and had to do it through myself as a person. Since we are still legally married, what I own personally I have to share with her 50/50 in case of another divorce.

The notarial real estate purchase agreement was done last month and for the love of god, I totally forgot that I was married. Seriously. Now I don't own the real estate yet, because the payment isn't through until the end of april 2019 and I have time to let my current wife sign a marital property separation contract that states that I can keep what I earn 100% (not sure if she will do this). She said she will sign it, but after that her hamster started spinning for reasons not to sign it (She doesn't know about the real estate purchase).

Thoughts of what actions to take

Now I am going to ask her to either sign the marital property separation contract or I will file for divorce to protect the assets I have.

Reasons I am harsh

In the end I want to talk about her behaviour and what makes me want to protect my assets so much. Yesterday we were debating something dumb (the meaning of the word expiation) and she read a wikipedia article to prove me wrong from her smartphone. I told her to let me read the article until the end and she gave me the smartphone only hesitantly. After she gave it, I am not sure what came over her, but she changed her mind and wanted her smarphone back. Since I was reading the article I refused to give it back, and she even climbed on my head to get it back, a thing she hasn't done in the 14 years we are together. Now I might be stupid, but I am not retarded and I don't need any more signs of infidelity than a women who tries this much to keep secrets. I judge her by her actions and behaviour, not by what she says. I still installed a keylogger this morning on her machine just to double verify, but even if she is not cheating, it's not possible to trust a person who keeps secrets.

Now, give me your thoughts. I know you guys are rough and I'll try to take your criticism as though it comes from a place of love.

TL;DR: Wife keeps secretes and I want to protect my assets.
