I have nothing of substance or value to add to this, except to say: retain a divorce lawyer and talk it through with him/her before you talk to your wife. (i) Your lawyer is always, always in your corner, which you can't say about family or college friends, and he or she surely knows a lot more about this than you or them or just about any of us, and (ii) you had sure as hell better know the future settlement implications of (x) letting her leave with the kid and (y) letting her stay in the house before you decide to do either (and surely a bunch of other stuff neither you nor I have considered).
Seriously, you need to stop fucking around, as TM and bimore point out, but before you jump know what you are jumping into. What do you want? Do you want custody, if she's so unstable? Do you want the house? The actions you take now could significantly effect your position down the road.
