My niece put up with her abusive ex for approx. 15 years before she filed for divorce. That cost her around $10k because she then decided to go back to the jerk.
She eventually refiled and went thru with it till the end but the ex has made her life and the two daughters' lives absolutely miserable since the divorce was finalized .....He's a wacko and just plain needs to be shot.
Indeed. Unfortunately for their victims, this type of wacko usually has a highly developed sense of who will just plain shoot him and who won't. He avoids the one and specializes in the other.
