I enjoyed the Bond movie too, but could have done with something a little less dark... also, Daniel Craig looks like my stbx (who is less ripped and less craggy in the face, but vaguely similar). So had a hard time with that, especially watching the occasional scenes of passion with random women. Movies about damaged men are not my cup of tea at the moment.
stbx continues to spew via email.
I replied to one as follows:
"This matter boils down to the fact that I can't attend a mediation session at the few times [mediator] has available between now and Xmas.
As a result, as I understand it, you have said a) that you may be forced to reduce your financial support for the children, and b) that you may use this as a trigger to go to court. "
Just wanted to get his threats down clearly for the record.
He is also fully fantasising. In one email he said, in reply to my saying that we needed (and appreciated) the financial support he had started paying since Nov:
"Also - I have not "started recently" to support the children. My support has been ongoing and consistent."
WTF???? How can they be so truly delusional? He has paid a total of about $2,000, all up, in the last 15 months. I suppose if you look at it like $30 a week, you could claim 'ongoing and consistent' support for 2 teenage children!!
And I suppose, as Snodderly keeps pointing out, this time of year really puts them into extreme panic/depressed/anxiety mode.
I think I am nearly done. It's almost impossible to feel compassion for someone who behaves like this. He's good at pulling me in, but he's also very good at slapping me down. And i don't want that any more.
