Ignore her rants. Do not let her push you out of the house.

Wants her cake and eat it also. Wants everything willing to give up nothing.

She told me I would have to pay nothing on the house no more but when the house sells I still get half . So what do you guys think, I will be saving a s--- load of money.But I cannot have no key to the house no more or no entry to the house .

Playing you for a fool.

You leave the house it's considered abandonment, she is still occupying the property, then refuses to leave or sell, then she brings in the OM to bang her in your bed.

Why do you think you have been advised to not leave until the house is sold?

Why do you think WW is acting out to convince you to move out?

WW can come after you for half the house bills, you still own half.

WW can cause all kinds of problems to stall or prevent the sale of the house. Leaving you twisting in the wind.

Divorced, simorced, you increase the chances of XW screwing you over if you move out.

Why can't your XW move out and still pay her half of the bills. If it's good for you it's good for her.

Divorced or not you want to still pay for the house, move out, let the OM move to bang your XW, on your dime?

Are you going to buy the OM condoms too?

That paper will be worthless because she will not be forced to sell it or buy you out by a specific date.

A little up date she keeps telling me to go out with this girl , but always hugs and kisses me and even comes in my room and lays with me .I will be getting my own place the frist of the year .Always if I leave the house and come back she ask did you go to her house . Do you think she knows with me moving out the end is near . I will say I got a nice lump of money from her 401 but dam the IRS is going to kill me .

We come home and let me say it was a great nite , After we have a great deal of fun I go to my room and go to bed the next morning she comes in and guess what more fun . Saturday afternoon comes she calls me and ask what are you doing tonite I said gong out again lets do something so we go out for dinner come home watch tv and go to bed no sex that nite just a good nite out but no talk about getting back together just talk about what is going to happen when I move out.Today she goes shopping I put up the Christmas tree she comes home and thanks me for it then says lets go eat we go get food come home sit watch tv then call it a nite .

I think a lot of women like to have their ex stay in their lives after they've moved on; friendship, protection, safety, it just feels better.

I guess what you do depends on what you want. What do you want, ultimately?

I think if you truly want her back, you will let human nature do your work for you. Get your own life. Go on dates. Change things up. Get fit. Start hobbies. Make new friends. Volunteer for the holidays.

Let her see you getting on with your life. If there is any hope for reconciliation, it will drive her crazy for you to not need her any more. If she doesn't bite, then she truly has moved on. And in the meantime, you have set up a great life for yourself.

True for some women.

She is cake eating. You are meeting some of her ENs by being there with her, so as long as you're there, she'll not be able to disengage from you. One way or another, you need to make a decision. Either leave and let her move on, or stay and ramp up your Plan A and fight for her. Cut out the limbo.

how much equity do u have in the house? if it's not much, maybe you could just write it off and move on? anybody trying to buy? why don't you reduce the sale price like your ex suggested?
