STBX and I both get calls from our tax preparer. I am getting a nice refund and she owes. On phone she's telling me how unfair that is - not taking incomes, deductions or anything else into consideration. Being very objective, she's doing better than she should be.
Anyway....she comments that "you are living in my house" - my response "you can live in it anytime you want". There was more, but no need to go into detail. Anyway, at the end of all of it, I say "it doesn't matter, because I will pay your tax bill out of my return". She seems less than grateful and has to go to get ready for work. I said "we can dicuss later".
So many men would be so much worse about this, but I am not going to start a fight over money over less than $2000. Let's see what the next covnersation about this brings.......
If her fleeing your family has caused her to have a higher tax burden, then that's one of the consequences of her decision. Why are you paying it?
BGPs.

That's not the reason she has a higher tax burden. But, also not for poor money mgmt reasons or anything. Anyway, it's only money.
