I don't think that the counselor saw anything the matter with this... it was just "Pat is clearly stating her relationship needs" to him.
A friend locally, whose sister is divorced and is moving her kids out-of-state, says that the court is allowing her to do this (without her ex-husband's approval) because she is providing nearly all of the financial support as well as the custody (ex is unemployed), and elsewhere offers a lower cost of living and better schools for the kids. Pat is not likely to get a job, let alone provide majority financial support, so we will likely be tied together (via our kids) for the next 13 years.
But in any case I'm going to stay put and stay in the marriage... Pat will have to initiate any breakup, and actively throw me out and reject me.
