I'm beginning to see what people mean when they say the crap never ends.
My atty said I could send in some of the forms myself to spilt one of our accounts. So I talked to the broker, wrote the letter they needed and I just need exW to sign it to get it done. Will she do that? Of course not. She is all in a tizzy that I am screwing her and said that for all future financial discussions, her atty will need to be involved. It's all in the court docs to do this, but she has to make everything a federal case. I told my atty to back away from all this, so I don't have to pay her for the nonsense. If exW wants to keep her atty in the loop, fine with me, but I'm not paying mine for this.
Next, I paid exW the entire month of CS when my auto-deduct hadn't yet kicked in. On the 20th it finally did and so I had essentially paid for the last 10 days of the month twice. I sent a note telling exW how much she owed me back.
Not so fast. Now, she isn't sure there isn't some reason she shouldn't keep the money. "Is it paid in arrears, or something?'" she innocently asks. The b!tch. All of a sudden she's a stupid female, waving her MBA at me. She "has to check with her lawyer." I really hate this crap, it makes my stress meter peg. I really need the cash because my budget is crushed with this, and she's dorking me around.
The thoughts to f her over are overwhelming. There are plenty of accounts that could suddenly have the money come out of them. So far I have totally taken the high road, but it is very, very hard for me not to retaliate.
I guess they are right, it never ends. But I'll tell you what: I will never trust her with any of my money again.
