I didn't want to have to go that route. I really don't want anything from her, but to sign the damn papers. If she wants to play hard ball then maybe I should too. She is not entitled to anything and if anything she should owe me to get out of this deal, which I was willing to take care of. Maybe I shouldn't be so nice, maybe I should try to rake her over the coles. The truth is, though, I don't care, I just want to be done with it, but I will not give HER a dime. I would rather give an attorney 2500 then give her anything.

Well, Crown, that is what the courts are for...to protect people. Good Luck to you.

I just wonder how raking her over the coals will help the kids through this?

It looks like you are letting your hurt feelings get in the way.

Norma is right, that is what lawyers are for. That way it doesn't become a bloody mess. If you spent all that energy that you are spending trying to get her to pay for your hurt, on getting help for you, and healing, than you would be able to get real happiness, not false happiness. Quit worrying about what she is doing, and take care of you. It's really none of your business how she is running her life. She isn't with you anymore. What is the right thing to do? The highest good for everyone in this situation? The anger, and bitterness will just tear you up, and hurt the kids. It isn't their fault that this is happening. They learn from their parent's behavior.

What is she really doing to you? Is money that important, or is it a way to get back at her?

God Bless,Gypsy

After her lawyer friend looked at all of the numbers in black and white, he realized she has NO CASE. In actuality she owes me a few thousand and with her delinquency on the bills it just makes her look worse in a court. Anyway, he suggested to draw up a paper that lets us both part ways with what we have now. I agreed to it, although it's hard to do, I think it's the right decision. He is in the process of talking it through with her - good luck!

Good answer Gypsy....the higher good is what is important. And Crown once you start taking care of yourself then you can concentrate on what makes you happy. I am sure the lawyer will get it all down on paper the assets accumulated during the marriage and the liabilities or debt and give some good advice. She may owe you money or you may owe her money...or luckily you will break even. Having an attorney as a third party helps to take the burden off of both parties. And it also ties up any loose ends like money from IRA's, savings, credit card debt, etc. Because I am sure the house is not the only asset you have.
