Tomorrow should be even better…
My kiddos both had good days today. We didn’t have any arguments, they smiled and laughed often. We had a great family dinner and enjoyed each others company.
My ex has been accusing me of being the sole cause of my children’s poor behavior in school and at his home. Since he has them directly before school and when they are at his house, this makes sense right that their behavior when not in my care is my fault? Uh no. Hey jackass… When the kids misbehave for you, it’s you not me.
I am so ready to be divorced from him. He is vengeful and bitter and angry and scared. So he has taken me to court four times in he past five months. He has lost every single hearing because he is asking for things that fall outside of precedence. He and his father want to take every penny I have because I had the gall to want out of an unhappy marriage while being the breadwinner. Unfortunately for him, since I am the one that spent all that time earning my degree and career, I get to keep it and he gets to go grow up at almost 40. He claims I made him give up his career and that our financial struggles were my fault not at all related to his failure to provide a fucking penny to the family for over five years. Total lies. I begged him to find work. So now after four court hearings where the judge has repeatedly ruled directly against his wishes, he has filed an appeal to be heard tomorrow. His lawyer typed up a nine page request for revision that said how the commissioner fucked everything up, how he should have more alimony, how he should have child support, how I don’t have the kids as much as the actual factual math shows, how I should pay for his personal debts before we pay community debts with the few remaining community dollars, and how I should be held in contempt for paying him 12 hours late one time. He also submitted a divorce settlement proposal which contradicts every ruling as if I might even consider agreeing to any of it. I’d rather pay for a trial than go with his lunacy. Like I would even glimpse at considering giving up my time with my kids and nearly half my salary when I have more time than he does to spend with them, through an established routine, and the courts have repeatedly stated through four court orders now that he has a sufficient income without any more money coming from me and what he is getting won’t last very long. Time to grow up you drunk, lazy, asshole.
Lose some weight, take some anger management classes, go see a therapist who will help you come to terms with being the actual cause of the marriage failing not the ex wife who stuck with you for fifteen agonizing years. Plus get over that I am gay. Suck it up. I was raised by homophobes. It wasn’t something I was allowed to fathom. I’ve always liked women, I just didn’t know it because I wasn’t able to discover who I was. I was forced into a box and I did my best but the walls failed and the world out here makes a hell of a lot more sense than that box ever did.
Fingers crossed that I win tomorrow. If I do, I expect to be divorced within a month or so. We will offer an immediate settlement that matches what the court has given him so far. Nothing more. Because fuck him and his cunt father.
My lawyer did an amazing job citing case law and precedence in her rebuttal that just destroys anything he tried to stand behind as a reason for the appeal. Sure its possible I will lose tomorrow which would be horrifying but I am hugely optimistic. Even his own lawyer hates him and thinks he is a trite fool who will fail and end up with less for telling the court they are wrong for ruling along side precedence using real math.
