[quote=Anonymous]I am the OP.  Have read through the thread so let me answer your questions as there have been huge assumptions made:
1)  The filing was scheduled by me and was not a surprise.  
2)  Why did I file and not her?  Someone has to do it and as this is my wife's second marriage (my first) I did not want her to file again as I know the pain she experienced when she had to do it the first time.
3)  How is tennis game?  To the poster, thanks for the sarcasm but I don't feel like doing much at the moment.
4)  How do I feel about her financial situation and that of my kids?  I have no problem paying more than what the law expects.  She works outside the house and I understand how difficult this is going to be for everyone.
5)  What is my family's marriage history?  Parents were married for 45 years until father died and sister has been married for over 20.  Wife's parents are still married but two sisters have been divorced with one remarried.
6)  Does it sound like I still love her?  My emotions are a mess right now.  But I will add that she is the one that I had to drag to marriage counseling.  And it tok months to do this.
7)  Was I missing a connection?  Exactly.  We were not connecting like a couple should - she had no idea of the everyday struggles that I face - her father was a union worker home everyday at 5:00 and she expected me to be like that.
8)  How come you hear about how bad she was but not about me?  From the start, I have never claimed to be a perfect husband or father.  But she insisted on spanking our kids and I am against spanking.
