I understand that he is being unfair and you are at a disadvantage monetarily. I'm all for going through mediation or any other legal avenue to get what is rightfully yours. A strong, independent woman doesn't take crap from anyone. She also knows that life isn't fair and sometimes it's better to cut losses than spend more time and energy on a draining situation.
Sometimes it comes down to do you want to be right or do you want to be happy.
