It would surprise the hell out of me if Mrs. Solodriver initiated divorce or had an affair, but at this moment it would be very welcome, because I'm ready.
I think it's the ones who are NOT ready or think they may have some HOPE that get caught by surprise, when their spouse decides to initiate the divorce. In my case either would be welcomed for me. It would make it easier to move forward with my exit plan.
But I don't think that's the case here. When the time is right and everything in my exit plan is in place, I will initiate it.
Kinda using shawwow's launch "T-Minus" launch strategy.
I have the voice of a "Divorce Launch Control" announcer in my head, just like the old space flight launches. I even watch the old launches on You Tube to have a good smile about that.
An example:
"This is Divorce Launch Control at 344 Days, 7 Hours, 35 Minutes, 7 Seconds and counting.
All continues to go well in the preparation phase of the mission to find a new life, love and sex for Solodriver.
Currently Solodriver is consulting with the members of the ILIASM team for daily encouragement and support and running checklists such as looking for divorce attorneys and paying off bills to help make this mission possible. He is also taking and following advice and measures to keep the Solodriver from "exploding prematurely" on the launch pad as technicians from ILIASM help keep the vehicle focused and supported. The crew of one in Solodriver is communicating with Divorce Mission Control and say all is well thus far in the countdown.
This is Divorce Launch Control"
In my minds background I hear the "chatter' going on with members of ILIASM running through systems.
If any of you remember the old space launches from the 60s and 70s and early 80s, you'll understand what I just explained. If not go to You Tube and type up Mercury, Gemini, Apollo or Space Shuttle complete launch coverage and you'll understand. Even watch the very first episode of Lost in Space for the same thing. I run this through my mind each morning as I wake up. It does help me to focus and it's kinda fun actually.

Edit Update:
I moved this from "Choosing to Stay" because I didn't want to appear not to support or insult those members of that board, or catch the wrath of the Mods for posting this there. My apologies.

Don't listen to "Space Oddysey" by David Bowie Brother solodriver . It doesn't end well for Major Tom !!!! Your pre-flight checks seem to be going well mate. Of all the launches off the ILIASM launchpad I've observed over the years, I am yet to see a catastrophic failure. Seen the odd sputtering jerky bumpy launch, but haven't seen a Soyuz1 type deal.

'This is Solodriver Divorce Launch Control at T-Minus 274 days, 7 hours, 35 Minutes, 40 seconds and counting.
The planned saving of financial assets for the launch is going well. All aspects of the mission are go at this time.
This is Solodriver Divorce Launch Control."

If you get a chance, thinking about your re-entry might have some later payoffs.

In my case, having a deadline on my T-minus thread helped tremendously. It turned a wish into a plan and then into action. And that led to results. That being said, if you look at my early t-minus posts I had several different countdown timers based upon how various things went. Have a plan. But be flexible to move the launch up or back depending upon conditions. And baza's suggestion on preparing for re-entry is an excellent one. It is always a good idea to work on getting your shit together. There are many who launch, get into orbit and experience the really rough time upon the blazing re-entry because they were not prepared or there was self-damage upon launch (i.e. Columbia).

You and choosinghappy have been my examples of the best way to planning and handling separation and divorce.
The countdown clock I did take from you because I thought it was a perfect way to handle putting things in order and it forces me to stay on my plan. Like you said, things can/may change that will change the timing but not the course of action I need to take.
It really feels like a "mission" to me with it's excitement, anticipation and worries about things that could go wrong along the way. But, just like space missions, they have a mission book (looks a lot like a telephone book) that they use to cover every minute of their mission. And it has space in it for updates to write in and blank pages to add stuff if needed.
I've actually stated a section on my cell phone notes section on my plan and I refer to it often.
I sure hope to not have a Challanger or Colunbia disaster.
This process feels exciting but nervous at the same time. I imagine that's how an astronaut feels when he goes on a mission.
This truly is a mission to find love, peace and joy to my life that is so miserable right now.
