Today, I started the first steps towards divorce. I contacted a divorce attorney. I think deep down I've known this was a long time coming. Looking back, I think I should have ran the other way when I looked down the aisle to him at the alter. There have been some trust issues in the financial department. He refuses to admit it but he doesn't trust women and hides money. Today, I found a statement indicating that he won a large amount of cash at a casino. I can account for some of the money he said he "saved", but large portion of it is unaccounted for. We've been under some serious financial stress, to the point, we got seperate checking accounts in hope to control the outflow vs inflow better. Seeing the amount of money he has really hurts me. We could have payed off several bills and really eased the amount of stress on our marriage. But he couldn't even tell me about the money.
Looking back, I remember that I'm the one that drained MY savings to start our life together, sold MY vehicle to get out of the payment only to have him buy a new one, and the list goes on. It's odd. I should be crying, angry with him over the money, and I just don't care anymore. I'm tired of fighting him for information on money. I'm tired of worrying while he's sitting on a pile of cash. I'm just tired.

For me, when I hit that sort of emotionless spot, I knew it was finally time to change my sitaution... and it sounds like that's where you are, too.
