ncl, I'm hoping the accumulating evidence about his financial fraudulence will make his claims against my assets null and void. The amounts that I stand to gain when his claims are thrown out are major in relation to the amounts he's filching at the moment.
Busting - the "bubble waiting to pop" metaphor is so accurate!
Last night we got another big strain on the surface tension of our existence.
H is about to leave for a holiday weekend interstate (with the home wrecker, I presume).
I've asked him to help out with money before he leaves - as S13 is going to camp before H returns and needs serious cold-weather gear. My cheque account and credit cards have been run down so far that I no longer have money for food and petrol. My next pay cheque is a week away.
We also have several major bills that are overdue for rates and credit cards.
So BIG pressure on H to come up with some money to keep his family going. But it seems there is none.
He came over last night to help the kids with homework - and even let me drive his car (it was blocking mine in the drive way) to the shop to get food for dinner (and gave me $100 cash when I said I was broke). This was a small miracle in terms of what he's allowed me to do previously.
Then he left, all very amicable.
I went to put my car in the garage and noticed that the engine was making a loud banging noise.
I called H to ask if he could take the kids to school in the morning as the car was undrivable. He went ballistic again.
Told me it was my fault I had no car. That I should have bought myself a new one by now (with what, I asked?) , and that he would not be driving the kids around unless they lived with him (he SAYS he lives in a rented room at a single man's house). He said I should drive it to the workshop to get it fixed. I pointed out that I had no money to do that.
Then I said "Thank you H, Bye", and hung up.
I called MIL and asked her help in getting the kids to school tomorrow.
About 5 mins later there was a loud knocking on the door and H burst in and shoved the keys of our other car (the luxury car he has commandeered for himself) at me. Told me he would take 'my' car, and that we were now another $10,000 down the drain and that it was all my fault for driving the car into the ground. He said he was SO ANGRY.
Then he roared off at a 100mph down the driveway (with the car making a terrible noise).
This morning, I realised I'd left my work car-park permit in the car he'd taken, so texted him to ask if I could come over and pick it up. He responded with some half-assed story about it already being in the workshop (at 7am!) and that he'd bring the permit over to me.
Seems he just can't bring himself to admit to us that he's living with the home- wrecker these days and not with his 'mate'.
Another 'why' question that I need to get out of my system: Why can't he tell me that he's living with her? If he doesn't want to be married to me any more, why the need to keep it such a big secret?
His bubble just has to burst soon, I think. A little worried about what he will do when it does - he really seems to have no way out of this disaster.
