Tim, it sounds like you've had a "countdown" going on? And if you're both happy with your freedom(s), that's what is important.
I'll have been married 37 years (in June)-- some of them good too! Regrets? sometimes-- you bet. But on balance, I like being married, although at times, I've wished it was too someone else. As far as WAF is concerned, I have my own semi-dedicated listening room, and I can pretty much do anything I want in there-- well, at least with audio equipment.
Three things that have made our marriage "work" are 1. we've had separate incomes and separate checking accounts for years-- with a separate household account that we both pay into. This approach has largely eliminated fights about money (and no, we're by no means rich-- we've both just worked all our lives). 2. As noted, I have a semi-dedicated listening room where I can do what I want. My wife agreed to this and even helped me pay for the re-modeling needed, so I guess that makes her a "keeper". And finally 3. She has little or nothing to do with my audio system(s);>) This is a success story of sorts, IMO;>). Cheers. Craig
