So sorry your X is being such a turkey butt. One of the sayings I cut out of the paper a few years back: "Don't count on shaming the shameless." It caught my attention because I foolishly asked my X,and I quote, "Have you no shame?" I regretted asking because the look on his face will stay with me forever. It plainly stated, "NO, I have none." I think I could have lived without that vision. On the upside, it finally made me realize that he truly felt he hadn't done anything wrong and then I knew for sure that he was a certifiable nut case.
My niece got married last September. She did not have her father give her away because she felt he had made a mockery out of marriage. I respected her for that. But, gosh, I hate the position all these kids are in. I truly hate it.
Hang in there. Good luck with the house.
