ICK.........I don't envy you, my FRiend.
I haven't had any dealings with my ex in nearly 10 years and his last attempt of getting money from me was about 15 years ago..........
Yup, you will find me siding with men in most situations because of witches involved, but I was one of the rare ones........the SOB was physically abusive and actually attempted to get spousal support out of me during the divorce....not only did my attorney laugh at him, but so did his.
There never was a need for him to get a lawyer because I left with what I came with and didn't want anything, the house was his. but he got an attorney figuring he could get more out of me because he had lost his job and I was making more money than he was. Like I said he was laughed at.
That's the only reason I got an attorney. I wanted to rest assured I would keep my house, however it was never in her name anyway.
I think I am one of the few "males" who filed for divorce because he was abused by his wife!
The whole scenario reminds me of one of the most disgustingly funny country songs ever performed.
"Get Your Tongue Otta' my mouth 'cause I is a Kissin' You Good Bye!" LoL!!
I'm glad I can look back at it and chuckle about it!
