When my W said she was coming home before the kids started school again I gave her 3 choices
1. Stay in the condo she was in
2. I would leave the house and send her the mortgage and some extra $
3. She pays me $1000 dollars a month to live at home.
She picked 3. $1000 is a third of our "joint" bills. I told her no free ride to a D and live here for free AND cheat on me.
She hates it when she gives me the $.
Since I am keeping the house ALL utilities are in my name now.
She pays her own car, car ins , and her own cell and other bills of hers.
I love this. Not exactly classic DBing, but I think this is the kind of "consequences" that betrayed's need to let kick in, in order for the wayward to "get it."
