Stoltz, my exact scenario to a tee, (except it was my first marriage). Be careful my friend, not to be jaded or cynical but view everything as to how is she (not a gender thing - men can be calculating also)going to screw you over. I bit my tongue so much it needed to sewn back together, did everything other than shopping and paying the bills - she had a calculated reason for taking that task on also and the paranoid side of me, at times, wondered what her "motive" for cooking @ 50% of the time was, being the good soldier didn't work. Not to be too graphic but even in he rack it was completely one-sided (oral 100:1)not in my favor. In order to salvage the marriage I sold my biz and got a j-o-b at a mere fraction of what I could make previously. More time w/ her and the kids and actually able to take time off and work reasonable hours were all part of the current landscape. Then she drops the bomb - she suddenly wants out -huh??? The assets from the sale are 1/2 her's and better act now as she can use my wages as a biz owner against me - when I have absolutely no chance to come close to making that dough as an employee. She clearly has a heart of gold!!!
Just be careful and watch every move - yes a horrible way to live, but I think prudent advice since she sounds exactly like my ex. This coincides with her business that I helped finance is finally on the verge of getting out of the red after a mere eight years (I don't get a penny from that and she averaged 15% of what she used to make as an employee - that's right not 15% less but 15% of what she used to make - 85% less). Ironic that all those events coincided with her suddenly deciding it's time to wrap er up!!!!
You seem like a sharp guy would is aware of your surroundings, but don't drop your or you could, as I did, catch one squarely on the chin.
