Marriage is the 20-year plan. Divorce is right now. If she can't come up with the money to keep the house then she can't keep the house. It is that simple and that brutal. I realize you still care, and you should. But when you get a divorce she is no longer your wife and you are no longer obligated to support her in the style which she has come to expect. Those days are gone now that women support themselves. I know I sound kinda brutal, but there are too many women that expect equal rights but don't expect to pay for them when the time comes for a divorce. IMO, if she wants the house that's fine. But your name should come off the mortgage and you should walk out of the marriage with your debts and she with hers. Otherwise you wind up tied to her and animosity grows. Make it a clean break, and it stays friendly -- once the dust settles.
