So glad to hear you gave up on that idea (sorry, but it was a bad one) of going in deep in order to get out. From everything you are now saying it really sounds as though your 'stars' are in alignment. Keep that calm, assured demeanor in your meeting tomorrow, you'll be fine and it sounds like your wife is ready to stand up for her own feelings about the org.
Best to you.

It's good your decision is made and even better if your wife goes with you. That will make a huge difference in how you cope afterward.
Just a word of caution: It will be wonderful having your freedom again, but based on my own experience and from the experiences of those on this board, expect that things will probably be a little rocky at first. Residual guilt and doubt may alternate with relief and exhilaration to make your first months a roller-coaster ride. But it will even out. Looking forward to hearing about your progress in the near future. -

Drew,
As you well know, your wife's response is 1000 times more important than the whatever response you get from the "elder".

TMS said it best, having your wife on the same page is the best! I'm really happy for you!

I'm glad your wife sees and agrees, drew. My husband left one year after I did. I didn't have to say much though...the "loving" brothers did it for me. Actions speak louder than words.
