WAW Using God II

[pigskin]

Check that: OM's wife is DRIVING 20 hours because he wouldn't let her spring for a plane ticket. Didn't care about her or his children attending the funeral. OM's W told me she was really close with her MIL for 20 years, and also said her MIL was disgusted by what OM was doing.

OM makes good money but spends it all and apparently is struggling with his apartment and mortgage payment. This is another thing that bothers me since W and I were solid 6 figure earners each for years, so OM stands to get a nice chunk if he marries my W when we divorce.

Anyway, continuing on about the phone call I had with my W. I basically told her I was not going to have her deplete marital assets on her affair and that I was noting the expense for her weekend plane ticket as well as the emergency ticket to attend OM's mom's funeral. She said the court won't allow that; I told her she has ZERO leverage, so she shouldn't try to nitpick or I will pick her apart.

She called obviously feeling guilty about me having to be inconvenienced by her attending this funeral. Downplayed sons missing baseball games and MIL driving 2 hours each way to pick kids up and bring them home. I told her I was meeting MIL halfway so she wouldn't be imposed upon. W said her mom loves getting the kids and wasn't being imposed upon. But when I offered to meet halfway, MIL jumped all over it.

Talked to MIL at the exchange point; she thinks her daughter isn't thinking and that the old daughter is gone. She thinks her daughter is nuts buying what was said about the woman OM's apartment. She also thinks OM is a sociopath. Good luck with that, wifey. Can't see your parents gleefully hosting OM for Thanksgiving anytime soon...
