I have been there as well. The ex wife and I tried counseling but she didn't want to hear a thing they had to say. She was already done and had made up her mind. Is sounds as if your wife is in the same boat.

Talk to a lawyer. They do info sessions for a small fee. Find a good family law lawyer that has a background in representing dads.

I don't know how it works in PA but in MN the spouse that makes more money (doesn't matter gender) may have to pay spousal support to the other. Since she makes more than you, you may have money coming to you monthly if you split. Of course time together matters as does other factors. But if she ends up with custody, you will most likely have to pay child support so it may be a wash.

My advice. Talk to a lawyer. Then try to work out the dissolution with OUT a lawyer. It will save you money and headache.

Of course you WANT to keep the house. Ask yourself it you can financially AFFORD the house on your own. I'm betting not since your wife makes more than you.

Sorry you are going through this. I remember the pain. It seems she is doing some brainwashing since she has you believing you can never make her happy. My ex said the same thing. Later I realized it wasn't me that couldn't make her happy. It was her that couldn't make herself happy. She was miserable but it had very little to do with me, mostly her own immaturity and her own ideas of how things were supposed to be.

Now I am married to a woman that my ex couldn't hold a candle to. It will get better. I know it doesn't seem like it now, but it will. I'm happier now that I ever was in my first marriage.
