Okay - well how exactly are we making the Mrs. mad? Nobody is poking her with a stick or making demands. In fact it is quite the opposite.
She asked S to give her more money in "good faith". He is well within his right to decline that request. Good faith can't only apply one way and so far that is all it has been. HOWEVER it is perfectly fine (IMO which I realize means jack) to say... "sorry, I can't complete your request for one any further exchange of money for one line item BUT if you care to complete the settlement now ALL money can be exchanged".
She asked - he said no and offered her an alternative that would help them both. S has no benefit in "good faithing" her MORE money but it is a leverage point. There is a reason Mrs. Romeo hasn't asked her attny first but went right to the source. Even she must know at this point she looks greedy beyond sin. If a single woman can't hack it on close to 3K per month AFTER her rent is paid something is wrong. She has no car payment or credit card debt and S covers her health insurance in addition to paying child support and contributing to the daycare costs of their daughter.
She won't be enraged because she knows she is wrong. This is not speculation - if she knew it wasn't "wrong" she would have run right to her attny as she always does. This time though she decided NOT to do that. IMO that is a HUGE indicator that is really the crux of the issue.
If she makes noise tell her to hop on that fancy bike you paid thousands for and tell her to ride around until she finds somebody who cares. Honestly, I know I sound horrible but I am so sick of this woman bossing you around. She left the home ya'll share 5 months ago without any money or a place to live and now she is in the same place again AFTER getting thousands in support for nearly half a year? Pffft!
