My attorney actually corresponded with STBX's lawyer and told him this would be the last divorce case that he does. In 43 years, her said he had never seen such a freak show as STBX and her attorney. Some statement after doing this for 43 years!
Okay, that is funny! I am sorry it is happening to you, but from this perspective it's crazy and a little amusing.
At my "settlement conference" my X's attorney said to my attorney "why do you get all the reasonable clients." His own attorney thought he was nuts!!! Of course he didn't say it in front of X, he wanted to get paid!

FLTC: I was amused by what your L said. I had been thinking before I came here today that my ex takes the cake - but then I thought of you. Hmmm...
After nearly 9 years on DB I know that mine is probably the angriest and meanest. I still can't believe how he turned on me and never does what is right by his kids. And I get no support, no respect nada.
My sis works for ex's L. They cannot stand him in the office. Everyone hides - he comes in screaming and yells at everyone. His co-workers say the same. Changed overnight when he left us.
Yesterday I saw the perfect t-shirt here at Disney for him. It had Grumpy on the front, arms crossed and said "I flunked Anger Management". Made me laugh! Keep the faith. I take comfort knowing that he is NOT happy in his "new life".
Thanks, folks! Glad to see you're all OK....or as OK as your life can be. Crazy, angry STBXs.......yep....divorce solved all of their problems. My STBX is ecstatic!!!! (ROTFLMAO!)
Glad to see her "love tanks" are now filled (Yep.....actually used the term "Love Tanks!")
kml....you've been here 3 years before me! Holy Sh*t! Glad to see life is good. At the end of the day, STBX did me a favor.
When my S, then 7 lay on his bed crying saying "We'll never be able to do all the same things we did when you move out", I've never been so close to just going "Connecticut Chimp" on her!
I don't know how they could be so selfish, but in the end, "I win"!
FLTC, my STBX just asked me to go to the cottage this summer for a week with her and the girls and some friends. She doesn't seem to get why I'm not jumping up and down with joy at the prospect. I said "I think it my be difficult for me to do, seven days is a long time" and she says "you have vacation time don't you?" Apparently, she's way off in la la land! I tried to explain that "emotionally" it might be difficult and then she hit me with guilt "we don't spend much family time together with the kids anymore" Gee, maybe that's because you didn't want the marriage anymore!!!! Yup, strange creatures.
