I emailed a mutual lawyer friend of ours - he's a well known criminal lawyer. He emailed me back right away and gave me the name/phone # of a female lawyer who takes legal aid. I'll call her tomorrow because my youngest is home sick today.

The other Halloween night both girls were gone to their friends house and we were home alone giving out candy. Everything was going neutral / civil - he started talking randomly how kids are so cute when they're babies and I thought this was friendly conversation until he said "do you think I should have another baby"? BTW I'm too old to have more kids, had a tubal ligation plus we haven't been together for 5 yrs........ SO I know he's not talking about me having a baby. I was floored to say the least - who the hell asks their legal wife whether he should have a baby. He's 51 and we have girls and he thinks he wants a boy. Then we ended up going around in the same frustrating circle.

He's made it apparent he doesn't want to give up the house, so I guess I need to be prepared for poverty conditions. Either I stay in this high class house with a kitchen I designed and take the mental torment or move and live in poverty. He doesn't want to let us live here with him moving out. He's a complete idiot - who would ask such a stupid question??? Why am I being tormented like this? I'm so unhappy.
