Hi! I visit here occasionally, and saw your post. I have had some experience with a crazy ex. I went through all the court stuff; my ex filed requesting to give me no child support or alimony after a 20 year marriage. He requested I pay half his credit card balances, which had been used to pay for his lawyer and frequent trips with OW. But after the D was done, he did wind up paying child support and permanent alimony and I did not have to pay any of his credit cards.
In dealing with a crazy ex, I figure out what is best for my children and me; I will not agree to anything that will hurt my children. If your ex acts ugly or nasty, that is on him, not your problem. Things in court will probably work out way better for you than he expects. I have not had to resort to mud-slinging; I find that pretty much everyone just thinks my ex is a complete jerk. It will all work out for you also...
