She is saying she wants to move to a condo and i stay in the house with the youngest who has two years left of high school. The older two are in college. They also need a place to go for vacation and summers. Any advise. Better to sell the house now? Better for me to move out? Im so confused about these options.

Lazy, It depends on the situation. Can you afford it all by yourself? I am living in an apartment and paying for the whole enchilada. Life sucks with no $$.

I am sorry you are here too. I wish you luck.

I would see a lawyer to chat at least, every state
And every situation is a litlle different. You can get
Free consults often.

You can do it yourself, some can use a divorce
Mediator, some 2 lawyers, some share a lawyer
that can be tricky they can only represent one.

The two in college are not usually covered, the
Younger one many have 50-50. Many do sell the
Home to Split up the assets.

During divorce its all about the financials and the
Children. We had a 50-50 split plus i received some
Alimony. It can get complicated if its contentious
And no easy answers only hard ones, HUGS
