I'm working on it. My L asked me to try and discuss something regarding custody with him before our next court date. H has been so eerily civil and nice I decided to give it a shot. Of course Mr. Nice guy disappeared and the attacks resumed. I ended up biting, but then quickly released. We are getting no where. He is using custody as the only leverage to hang over me. That is the last thing that needs to be resolved but he is so outraged by what his legal financial responsibility is to me that he refuses to separate the custody issues from everything else. It [censored] because it is the kids who are hurting. All because he never thinks he should ever have to pay for anything.
I'm done. If I have to live with the present custody arrangement so be it, but the kids shouldn't have to suffer. 5 more years and then they will both be 18 and I won't have to negotiate with him at all anymore. I suffered an emotionally abusive M with him for 14 years--although I didn't realize what was happening, what's another 5 years.
