My wife of 5 Years Has recently informed me that we are separated after we we were just taking a short break from each other For what I thought was to help her deal with her menopause and issues she had with me We have been together for 16 years There has been little to no communication for almost the last 2 That is not all her fault I'm at blame too I just kinda gave up after her continually bringing up things from the past and a lot of verbal abuse the last year I tried almost everything I could to understand what she was going through and the issues she had with me. I did all the things she wanted me to do and it just got worse I feel like it was because she could not push me to be the bad guy and yell argue and break things like I have in the past I'm no saint bye any means but I have changed my life for the better. So to my surprise I catch her moving out of the house I provided for us and she called the law saying that I was there harassing her trying to take her side bye side(ATV) that I had before we got married. So just to calm the situation instead of taking it after I figured out that she was going to take it anyway I ask her not to and for us both to seek legal advice first I knew she could not take it or the property willed to me before the marriage. So she will not give it back I've told her I would let her use it if she would have just ask I love her and don't want to throw away our relationship I need help deciding if I should and I do have to file charges on her to get it back because I don't want to be the old me anymore and get in trouble taking my own property back any advice would be great I'm lost and broken I have no feelings other than numb I felt this coming but couldn't change it no matter what I tried

Can you please clarify a few things? I am not sure if I have understood correctly.

1. Your house was willed to you before your marriage. Therefore, you believe that it is your own property and should not be considered in a divorce proceeding?

2. Are you asking if you should take legal recourse against your wife?

3. Are you willing to divorce your wife?

4. Are you asking advice about these or separate issues?

I don't mean to be insensitive. I just don't wish to misunderstand your point and go off on a tangent.
