Fireball, I just saw this and was immediately struck by a couple things. First, that your marriage breakup news is about the 5th or 6th such story that's been put up for public consumption here on the 'Fire in the past year, and second, that even though you've been around here long enough to have read the reams of very good advice on those threads, you've posted yet another thread.
Here's a short list of the best advice that's been offered here before, in order of priority:
1. DO NOT write another word about this on the 'Fire, or on any other internet site. Don't write emails, PM's, or anything else about it.
2. Protect your most valuable assets NOW. Don't wait til you get home from work tonight. Clock out, go home, get your stuff out of the house and somewhere safe.
3. Retain a lawyer TODAY and get his/her best advice on what you should do now, then follow that advice immediately and to the letter.
4. DO NOT capitulate to your soon-to-be-ex-wife's manipulations. Your lawyer can probably advise you on what specific ploys to expect and avoid.
Only after you've taken care of the above items should you look to find the spiritual/emotional support you feel you need so badly right now. You won't give a rat's ass for emotional support if she cleans out your bank accounts while you're praying with your pastor.
You are living in a very dangerous time right now. Keep your head.
Good luck, and I'll pray for you.
This. End of story.
