Just thought I'd post because I'm needing some emotional support. Seems like everything financially is falling apart around me as a result of my STBX's choices and behaviors. I'm paying for everything-she doesn't have any bills or financial obligations, and also paying large amounts of spousal support. My accountant says I made some mistakes in withholding for my business, and now I'm on the hook for 30K in IRS money. Lawyers, accountants, bookkeepers, IRS, the bills wont stop, and I'm sitting here in a hotel that has become my home, feeling like the financial outflow won't stop, wondering what part I played in bringing my life to this point.
Tomorrow is my oldest son's ninth birthday, and I'll get to have him and his brother for the weekend, which I'm thankful for. It'll be nice to see him happy, to take him to a movie, etc., but the other side of it is an incredible loneliness that comes from trying to shelter him from my failed marriage to his mom while I'm falling apart inside.
That's my vent. I don't want to wallow in feeling sorry for myself. Just overwhelmed by these financial issues and the upcoming final round of the divorce hearings.
I think I'll read something uplifting tonight. My best to all on these boards who are going through this same ordeal.
