Ms Ladybug is MOVING OUT.

[ms ladybug]

H called me yesterday. He's made the decision to move to Santa Maria (3hr away). I felt kicked in the gut. Not so much for myself (OK, some), but mostly for my kids. He is giving up shared custody (30%), and taking a job in another town.

My kids are going to grow up without a daddy because he is too selfish to stick around for them.

Of course...this is MY fault. As it will be told to his family and friends so he doesn't look like the selfish ***hole that he is. He asked for 50%, and I denied him that. So... I'm "keeping him from the kids, and he may as well leave." REALITY is that if he had to kids on ALL his days off...that would be 40% custody. 50% would not be possible. 30% was going to be my offer when we go to court.

IN FACT, I'm not going to change my offer. I want to go to court, have my atty offer 30% and LISTEN to my husband REJECT it so he can move. This ISN'T going to be on me!
